PC Peripherals How many fans does your chassis have?

Case : Lian-Li 215 Mesh
Front : 2 x 200mm ARGB (Included with Case)
Rear : 1 x 120mm ARGB Antec Prism Fan
CPU : AMD Wraith Prism Cooler 92mm x1 fan
GPU : 92mm x1 fan

Future planning: Putting 2 x140mm Top Exhaust fans
 
Case : Thermaltake suppressor F31 (B550f Strix + Ryzen 4650G)
Front : 2 x 140mm Noctua NF-A14 Chromax
Rear : 1 x 140mm Blue Ring LED original thermaltake case preinstalled.
CPU : 1x150mm Noctua NH-D15 Chromax (using with only1 fan)

Proposed 2nd system: (To be assembled this week)
Case: Cougar Mx410 Mesh RGB (yet to receive)
CPU: 2x120mm NH-U12S SE-AM4 (additional fan in push pull config)
Top: 2x120mm Arctic P12 PWM PST got these from @SunnyBoi
Front: 3x120mm Arctic F12 PWM PST
This 2nd system is just about shifting old Ryzen 1600 + Strix b350 + Asus 1050ti to a smaller cabinet.

2 CPU + 6 case fans. 4 of those are recent additions/changes. Don't even know if it actually helped that much :banghead:

There was a video by jayz2cents on that if I recall correctly...
In his experiments, he found that anything more than 1 intake and 1 exhaust has diminishing returns.

My current setup has 2 front 140mm intake, 2 top 120mm exhaust and 1 rear 120mm exhaust.

Well in my case I didn't do any A/B Testing. Apart from one SSD dropping 20 C 9also used a cheapo heatsink on it). I really don't know what I was smoking when I bought that Arctic P14 PWM 5 Pack
 
Finally took it out again after over a year of lying dormant to start assembling the components. Chassis is Thermaltake Chaser MK-1 full tower. Comes pre-installed with whopping 200mm fan on top and front. The fans are three led (only 3 led. Not RGB). Rear is a non-led 140mm. The fan dangling from the chassis is a 120mm Corsair fan from a Corsair chassis. I also have another 200mm white led fan. Dunno where I kept it. I need to get the fan hub asap. Wanted to get a better motherboard with 4-chassis fan support but missed a deal. :/

Excuse the poor image quality. Phone cam lens cracked. x_x
Also got these two 80mm Arctic fans for a case mod build but my tools broke down and the build was cancelled so never got to actually put them to use. I love the white non-led color fan blades.

Excluding 2 fans on GPU and 1 fan on Cpu cooler, I am using 3 front intake, 1 rear and 1 top exhaust fans...
Maybe will add 2 more in coming months.
 
I bought Lian Li 215 cabinet which has 2 x200mm Front Intake & 1 x120mm Rear Exhaust while my processor is cooled by Cooler Master Masterliquid ML240L V2 RGB which 2 x140mm RGB fans as Top Exhaust.
Need to do cable management yet to make my cabinet look pleasable.
 
Earlier i had 3*120mm 3000rpm intake fans in front.....2*120mm 4000rpm exhaust at top and 1*120mm 2500rpm rear exhaust....now a 360 msi liquid cooler in front and 1*120mm 4k rpm exhaist at top and 1*120mm 1500rpm exhaust at rear

Wow people are using so many fans in the CPU. :oops:

Well if we don't count 2 fans of GPU , & 1 fan of CPU; then I just have 2 fans installed. One in front and and one in rear. The front one is 80 mm (zebronics :depressed:) and rear is 120 mm (CM Red) . Gets the job done well.

PS - how do you guys keep your PC so clean? I live in NOIDA and it's so god damn dusty everywhere. I will need to keep cleaning it almost every few hours to keep it that clean. Any pro tips ?
 
3 x 120mm 1200-2000RPM fans in front as intake. 1 x of the same fan on top as exhaust and 1x 120mm 1500-2500RPM fan on the back as exhaust creating a positive pressure. Not counting CPU/GPU fans.

I also live in Delhi.
Every 2 weeks clean the mesh/fans from outside, blow dust from inside and a little bit of brushing every 2 months. If you do this regularly the dust doesn't get stuck or settle in which means it's just loose dust and can be blown off.
 
Thats a lot of RPM's, yeah living in Delhi does have you dealing with a lot of dust. So every 4-6 weeks, I brush, then vacuum and then use the blower to dislodge the dust. Nothing you can do about it, better air flow also translates into more dust.
