NZXT Hades, air cooling optimized case. Comes with 2x200mm fans (front/side), 1x120mm exhaust and 1x140mm intake/exhaust top. I've removed one side 200mm because of clearrance issues with cpu cooler. PSU intakes from bottom.

800D

 

4x 120mm in pull on top RX480

2x 120mm in push in bottom RX240

1x 140mm exhaust

 

Nothing flashy but they're all running silent optimised rather than performance.

Two Cases,

 

 Bitfenix Shinobi:

 

Front: 2x 120mm Bitfenix Spectre

Top: 2x 140mm Fractal Design Silent Series R2

Back: 1x 120mm Fractal Design Silent Series R2

Bottom: 1x 120mm Fractal Design Silent Series R2

 

 

CoolerMaster HAF XB:

 

Front: 2x 140mm Fractal Design Silent Series R2

Even with less fans the HAF XB is running cooler.

I have an old Chieftec thing, basically an updated Dragon. I have four 120mm case fans (noctuas) in there. Even though it's a full tower, some modding was required. (It had native support for five 92mms, none of which are in use, and one 120mm)

Antec Lanboy Air:  2x Stock Antec Tri-Speed blue LED fans front intake; 2x Antec TrueQuiet 120 Blue LED side intake; 1x Cougar CF-V12 rear panel (intake, not exhaust.  Going for the 100% positive pressure idea for the case); 2x Corsair SP120 PWM Quiet Edition push/pull on a Hyper 212 Evo, Stock 135mm CM Silent Pro M2 PSU fan, and 4x 80mm Asus DC2 on 2x GTX 660ti 3gb edition cards.  All in all, it's fairly quiet up until the video card and heatsink fans ramp up. 

 

Debating on replacing all of the case fans w/ NoiseBlocker Alphacool Eloops.

The bigger question I am interested in is how many fans do you run in your machine, I asked what type of case so we have an idea of how much those fans exactly do. For example four fans in a small HTPC case is much more useful than four fans in a TJ11.

 

Currently I have a Corsair 400R, my graphics card has one fan and same for the power supply. There is 10 other fans that I have installed. They are all Cooler Master fans that come 4-in-1 packs. I have them all wired to an NZXT touchscreen fan controller, 2 fans for every channel on the controller. So total 12 fans, and the loudest thing in my computer is the hard drives that spin at 7200RPM because the fans can be run at such a low RPM. Also to clarify I use a Corsair H50 cooler, so two of the fans out of ten are on the radiator for that in push pull. 

 

Fan locations:

2 Fans are located at the front grill for intake

1 fan is sucking air through the hard drives from these fans in the front

1 fan is located in front of the power supply (also intake)

2 fans on my side panel as intake

2 fans as exhaust on my radiator

2 fans on the top of the case as exhaust

Power Supply and GPU fan

 

So, how many fans have you squeezed into what case?

I wasn't sure if I should put this under Cases and PSU's or air cooling, so it ended up here. 

MAGNUM STH10............26 Fans

I have a Define R4, with two BeQuiet Silent Wings 2 in the front (Intake), one Silent Wings 2 in the bottom (Intake), two BeQuiet! Pure Wings 2 in push/pull on a Corsair H60 (Exhaust) and of course a 135mm Silent Wings on my 630w BeQuiet Pure Power L8 CM.

Guess who is a BeQuiet fanboy? :P But damn, It really is QUIET!!!!!!
