Gathering bits for fmic set up but whats the general concensus - fans or no fans??

I notice alot of project threads dont feature fans and as my pug is no longer my daily Smile the risk of being stuck in traffic on a bloody hot day is minimal (so are bloody hot days anyhow!)

Thoughts please.....

I would just for piece of mind £20 fans are cheaper than a new engine to replace your overheated one

No brainer tbh
