There was actually more than 18 fans, when I think about it properly but every fan was quiet and the whole pc, made barely any noise.


Fans were laid out like this in the 900D that I had.

Rear: Akasa Apache Black - Extract
Top: 480mm rad with 8 Akasa Apache Blacks in push/pull - Extract
Front: 3x Akasa Apache Blacks - Intake
Front HDD Cage: 1x Akasa Apache Black - Intake
Bottom Left Side: 360mm rad with 6 Akasa Apache Blacks in Push/Pull Intake
Bottom Right Side: 240mm rad with 4 Akasa Apache Blacks in Push/Pull Extract


The noise level from that pc was about the same as from a pc with only 2 fans in it, as the fans that I chose the Akasa Apache Black have a really low noise level as they only, run at 1300rpm.

That was cooling my 3930K at 4.6ghz, Rampage IV Extreme and 2 GTX 680's all overclocked.
