Do most people add fans to the cabinet back?

Just finishing off the back of mine and currently it's all sealed off.  Would adding vents be enough or do i really need active ventilation with a big fan?

Depends how paranoid you are, what the construction material is, how cramped the interior is etc etc.

We've never found the need, but add them if requested.

Beretta:
im planing on adding 2 120mm intakes on teh back door and another 120 exhaust on the top.

it wont hurt to have the extra ventilation.

javeryh:
Can't hurt.  I don't have any in my DK and I've left it on for 8+ hours and it is still pretty cool in there.

My Track and Field cabinet has a vent at the top, so I attached a fan to it. I have recently stopped using the fan to make the cab quiet, and have not had any problems. Even if you don't add a fan, you do need to at least vent it.
