Thinking to buy a Phanteks Pro II (http://www.phanteks.com/Enthoo-Pro2-TemperedGlass.html) and looking for fans.

This case has lots of fan places. Will it be overkill to fill all of them?

Total Fan Mounts = 15 x 120 mm / 8 x 140 mm (+6x +120mm)
Front Fan = 4 x 120 mm / 3 x 140 mm
Top Fan = 3 x 120 mm / 3 x 140 mm
Rear Fan = 1 x 120 mm / 1 x 140 mm
Bottom = 3 x 120 mm / 1 x 140 mm
Side = 4 x 120 mm

In another forum someone suggested that "top front fans pull the fresh air out of the system from the front fans before the components uses the air. It a waste of money spent"

3x front
1x top rear
1x rear

So he suggest 1 fan on top instead 3 fans.

Will more fans help cooling? If yes then i can populate all spots with fans. But I've heard they have diminishing returns or hurt temperature negatively.

What do you thing?
