Default fan cooling...a joke?

im starting to just learn about some of this stuff...and the fans that came with my case im guessing are low cfm...hopefully extremely low cfm, i put the side of my case on, which has one fan in it and my temp's all went up, i ordered 2 133 cfm 120mm fan's--my question.......will i actually see a diff in temps?

ive read up on making a negative pressure system and thats what ive done right now but just a sideless case made a better cooling system than the fans provided

Adding fans won't do anything unless you have have proper airflow. You want the front fan to be intake and rear and top fans to be exhaust. Side fans can be either depending on your situation. And 133cfm fans? They must be loud as hell..
