K1u Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Most people should be 5+ at least 3-4+ on case, then cpu, then gpu, northbridge, etc... so pretty much i think its gonna come out most 5+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 I have 4 12CM case fans, plus a CPU fan, then another on the graphics card: 6 I has: Older version of this for CPU (The design is the same, it just has a diffrent name I can't remeber). Four of these (they are the shit when it comes to air cooling, they come in 8CM as well). What ever the fan is on the stock cooler for a EVGA 9800.

Deags Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 the mainframe has 0 but the harddrive(commonly called the CPU) which the mainframe sits on has one I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren Kitchen Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I have three oldschool fans in my case. Ilya, Kainchick and DarkSenay. They can get kinda loud in there so every now and then I just kick my case and they shut up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tim.vangehugten Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 just one fan on my motherboard and guess what, it just works fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluephoenix Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Just wondering how many fans people use.. this poll does not include your cpu, graphics card, psu fan just to let you know 1st poll i dont know if it works so lets pray I only have one fan but put 0 on the pole. Because that one fan is attached to a heat sink that covers most of the motherboard. So it would be a cpu/gpu/every-other-chip fan and you said to exclude those. By the way most laptops fall into this category (one fan cools all) :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicatronTg Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I have one water cooled system, and one fanless cooling case system. My last fan pc got fried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natural_orange Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 w00t laptop = 1 fan Your average cheapo computer probably has 2, one in PSU, one for CPU. Most cheapo computers typically don't have a case fan, or GPU fan. The slightly above cheapo computer has mabey one case fan. If you built the computer youself, it should be something like 1 for PSU 1 for GPU 1 for CPU 1 for Case Front (for Cooling HDD's) 1 for Case Back 1 for Case Side or Top (optional) 1 for Second GPU (optional) 5 to 7 is typical for a custom built computer.

Keiyentai Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I have three oldschool fans in my case. Ilya, Kainchick and DarkSenay.

Currently I have 2 large fans in my desktop not including the GPU/CPU/PSU got more so adding them soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spikey Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I only go off of fans now I tryed water cooling but was hooked up right and the pipe pop and anifrezze went all over my PCs inside and on my monitor. that PC case It still smalls like anifrezze. on a side note . I modded a 250watt to work on a AMD Athlon board I super charged it with 6 FANs with 1 switch per fan it sounds like a Jet engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
