1x120mm = 130 CFM
1x92mm = 120 CFM
7x80mm = 7x27 = 189 CFM
1xBlower = 34 CFM
2x80 PS = 50 CFM
1xGPU 60mm = 15 CFM

Total = 538 CFM With possitive Pressure with A LOT OF NOISE.

Average of 36*C FULL LOAD OCed [email protected] P4. Gotta love my new temp. Not great for idle but @ load is the best :)
 
CPU and Video are currently using 80mm@25cfm's each.

Case:
120mm intake/exhaust: 50cfm
80mm psu: 25cfm

I've got ~75 cfm's of negative pressure going through my case.
 
6 80mmAntec Blue LED CAse Fans-6 X 35= 210
1 80mm Sunun-1 X 45= 45
1 80mm PSU FAB in PC P&C-1 X 45= 45
1 40mm North bridge Fan-1 X 5= 5
1 40mm GPU Fan-1 X 10= 10

Total = 315 Roughly
 
Unknown output fanns, 2x40mm gigabyte deliverd, northbridge, and dps2 module cooling fans. the sapphire radeon 9500 pro cooling fan , and "important" for case throughput, the antec true power 550 fans. other then that...

2x60mm Deltas, 6800rpm 37.5cfm -out
2x92mm Zalman 3000rpm 54.5cfm -in
1x92mm Zalman 3000rpm 54.5cfm -cpu
Id say aprox 230-240 + the unknown fans.

Still boiling, need faster bigger 92mm fans, sadly, hard to find in my area...
B!
 
Well i have negative CFM, basically i hate dust so i have more exhaust then intake, it is better i reckon, but lets not get ahead of ourselves, i have lots of intake also.

Exhaust

1 - antec psu 92mm - 80cfm
2 - nameless 80mm - 2*35=70cfm
1 - reb/blue/green led 80mm - 40cfm

Intake

1 - reb/blue/green led 80mm - 50cfm
2 - spire II 70mm - 2*32 = 64cfm
1 gigabyte 3D cooler ultra gt = 100cfm
1 - gigabyte titan 40mm - 15cfm
(last two dont really count cause it doesnt bring in air, just moves what was in case around)


this post makes me feel better about having so many fans.

4x panaflo L1A 80mm = 96cfm
1x torin blower = 85cfm

*Optional* (usually not used unless its a really hot day or hot lan party)
2x YStech 50cfm 80mm = 90
2x Comair 172mm(in/out) = 470cfm [for lan parties :)] *vroom vroom*

Total = 751cfm with a whole lot of pressure
W/O optional (when temps r under 35c) = 181cfm


Edit:: i'm actually running the torin blower and comair fans @ 33v instead of 24v. don't know how much air they move @ that voltage, but they do get a lot louder :(

and DBA rating (just for kicks, hehe)
~58dba (with all fans, possible 65dba with the overvoltage)
~27dba (with panaflos and torin blower)

2 120mm panaflow h1a's for case 100*2 = 200
2 120mm papst 4112gx's for rad 160*2 = 320
1 60mm 6800rpm screamer for gfx = 60
1 80mm and 1 92mm fan in PSU = 50?

thus: 630 cfm.

In practise it will never be reached, because of pressure limitation and that most are either turned down or are off :)

My case is currently running 5 of these plus my psu and hsf fan for a total cfm of about 200. those fans are quite nice btw they have a molex passthru and a 3pin connector and they're sleeved with black sleeving. I got 10 of them for $9.90 shipped.
