Intake - 80mm Panaflow L1A
*Intake / HDD cooler - 80mm Panaflow H1A
*Intake / HDD cooler - 80mm Panaflow H1A
*Intake / Baybus cooler - 40mm Sunon
*Intake / CD-RW cooler - 30mm? (Plextor CD-RW fan)
CPU fan - 80mm Panaflow H1A
GPU fan - 7v BlORB
KT133a Fan - 7v BlORB
*PSU Intake - 80mm Panaflow H1A (soon to 92mm, once I get a hole saw)
PSU Exhaust - 80mm Panaflow L1A
Lower Case Exhaust - 80mm Panaflow L1A
Lower Case Exhaust - 80mm Panaflow L1A
*Upper Case Exhaust - 92mm Panaflow L1A

Grand Total: 13 Fans

Fans with a * only come on as temps demand. Add it all together and you have a very QUIET PC (other than the SCSI HDD's seeks, I can't hear ANYTHING out of it when it's in 'quiet mode', but it sure does roar when it get's hot out) that maintains a case temp of 3*c above room temp & a CPU temp of 40*c on a Athlon 1.4 @ 1.7Ghz.

5 Fans total

Front case intake: Panaflow 80 mm L1A

Rear case exhaust: Panaflow 80 mm L1A

Power supply exhaust: Panaflow 80 mm L1A

Geforce3: Crystal ORB with lid removed and 7 volt mod to make it quiet

CPU: Panaflow 80 mm L1A.

Even with this many fans, my system is very quiet. To my ears, anything over ~ 3600 RPM or so is too loud. The Panaflows are great. They move enough air and are very quiet.

4x80MM 35cfm case fans, 2xlower intake, 2xupper exhaust(4 new Sunon 50cfm 80mm fans comming tomorrow:D)
1 PSU fan(Antec)
Stock Intel CPU fan(may change soon)
Thermaltake DDR cooler, (30mm i believe)
Crytal Orb on G3

After those 4 sunons are in there it might hover:D, I have it switchable between 5V-12V though, so I can always tone them down a bit if the sound gets to me.

My PC isn't very popular with only 13 Fans. I bet Cal Ripken has a lot of fans!

That's why it gets so hot at Oriole Park after a game. All of the fans are gone! :p

Cheers!
