Yes, I installed an extra fan inside the front of my computer to cool my computer since I think the cooler my computer is the longer it would last. Plus, I used to be into installing fans with cool blue LED lights to make the inside a cool blue color.

I also have a cooling pad for my laptop to cool the bottom of it to make it run cooler, so it might last longer.

But, for other electronics like game consoles, I don't install fans on them since I read some of those fans for game consoles can use too much power, and wreck the game console. I just make sure the room is cool enough by opening a window, using house fans to cool the room, and using curtains to block the sun light.
 
how do you install extra fans? My PC tower is pretty huge and I doubt the one or two fans in it is enough in the long run.
 
It is pretty simple, you just screw it onto the fan grill on the case on your PC, and plug it into your power supply with the built-in power plugs on the power brick.


Your 1-2 fans would probably be good enough unless you live in a very hot place, or you have a very hot video card in it,
 
That is a big computer you have there. If your fans spin fast enough, it probably be good enough to cool your PC. It is easy to tell if your fan spins fast enough, just put your hand near the fan holes, and if you feel a cool or slightly warm breeze. Your fans are probably fast enough to cool your PC.

Although, it never hurts to have more cooling.
