Is 1500 RPM fan enough?

It's a good start, but only you can tell once the pc is up and running if it's enough. For high end pc's, it's typically about 4 or 5 fans total, for low end many just use one exhaust, so 1+1 will drop case temps at least @ 10-15°C. If you feel you need more, you can add more, but a 1+1 is a minimum for me.

Why is high RPM good?

Higher revolutions per minute equate to more fuel burnt in the same amount of time and more power produced. Because of this, most consider higher RPMs racing RPMs. Running at lower RPMs equates to higher torque and thus lower horsepower, while making higher RPM power outputs less torque and higher top horsepower.
