The case I want has no intake fan and nowhere to put one. However, I don't plan on using one of the two 5.25 external drive bays or either of the two 3.5 external bays. I know there are fans you can put in these to cool hard drives, but would they help cool everything else if there's no hard drive there? Or are there fans specifically made for this?

The 5.25" bays can definitely hold fans, and they are a viable alternative to an intake fan, as they do basically the same job. It is all about getting air to flow through your case, and this does the job well.
After a bit of research, it seems that this is one of the better options:
