This applies to any variant of the Colossus and the Venom variant.

I may purchase one of these cases but I would like to know a bit more about its cooling performance.

Correct me if im wrong but does it only come with two fans? I know these are big fans but will this be enough to cool high end hardware?

Also will this case be good enough to coo, the following specs:

Intel i7 3770k overclocked
Asus P8Z77-V PRO Intel Z77 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard
Corsair Vengeance Low Profile 16GB
KFA2 GeForce GTX 680 LTD OC
Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 1TB
Intel 330 120Gb SSD
DVD RW drive
Creative Sound Blaster Recon3D Fatal1ty Professional Soundcard
750 Watt PSU

Cooler-Prolimatech Genesis Mega CPU Cooler

In all, how is the cooling performance and will I need any more fans?

thanks
 
The stock cooling although maybe not "normal" it is decent. Mine atleast came with 2 fans both 230mm. They are loud at 12v and didn't seem to play ball with my fan controller.

I have since swapped out my front fan with a 230mm coolermaster fan from a fan, and the top contains two aerocool shark 140mm's (the second fan does not have proper mounting holes) I also have a normal 140mm spectre in the back which although quiet moves basically no air and finally I have added another 140mm aerocool shark to the bottom to help with my graphics cards as they where getting rather warm but that was to be expected.

With the stock fan configuration your system will be cooled without issue however you wont want to run the fans at full speed.
