One 200mm fan, two 140s, and three 120s(case and radiator).

I have 5x 120mm fans all on radiators. 2x intake 3x exhaust. I know it's negative pressure but it's not easy getting positive pressure in a R5 which is watercooled unless I let heat from the 360mm rad in the top into the case.

:) I have a case that only has one fan mount, all negative pressure  B)

3 x 120mm @ front

200mm @ top

240mm rad @ the back with 4 fans in push-pull.

So on the case itself, 6 fans are directly mounted, and 2 are sort-of case fans?

I have a fan in my psu and 2 on my gpu, but that doesn't count

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

It's an antec 1200 btw :P

A bit modded because it was needed to get an H100i in it.

Yes it is old, and there are nicer things out there, but i won't get rid of it! It was a present years ago, and i still love it.

We here are kids, I'm not many enough to think that someone has no fans

Ur real lucky

Fans are surprisingly expensive I have to say! But I just collect them over time thats all! 

 

TIP - If you replace ur case remove all the fans from the old case and fill up as many empty fan slots as you can!

2 be quiet! Silent Wings 2 140mm front intakes

1 be quiet! Silent Wings 2 140mm floor intake

1 be quiet! Silent Wings 2 140mm back exhaust

2 semi-passive fans on my first MSI GeForce GTX 970 Gaming 4G Golden Edition

2 semi-passive fans on my second MSI GeForce GTX 970 Gaming 4G Golden Edition

1 semi-passive Sanyo Denki San Ace 120mm fan in my Seasonic 860XP2 power supply unit

 

The CPU cooler also operates semi-passively with a 140mm Thermalright fan duct to the aforementioned back exhaust. This adds up to four case fans and, if you include all the semi-passive fans on some of the components, nine fans total.
