No, the 3 fans are the 2 in front and the 1 in back. 3 case fans. I do not include the fan that comes on the cooler. And no I don't think you need to change your CPU fan, if you want to get 4 noctua fans and replace all of your fans with noctuas that's cool, but the dollar to performance gains won't be worth it. You will be paying for 1-2* C tops and bragging rights.

Last question how many extra fans can I fit in this Case and could you recommend decent cheapish fans?

Your case supports 3 fans, 2 in the front and 1 included in the rear, so you should only need a pair of fans.

I will make several recommendations. Here are two Bitfenix fans. The Spectre Pros are $17, and the Spectres are $10. HERE are both fans.

Cougar also makes some excellent fans. HERE are some options. The CF-V12HB are 4-pin so they will be more easily adjusted and monitored with your bios, but the turbine 4pack are good fans too.

Since you only need two, you could consider paying the premium for noctua fans. They are considered by many the best, and while outfitting an entire full case with them may be outrageous. $40 for 2 may not be as much of a stretch. HERE they are.

These noctua are a great idea and as i am from England i can get two of these fans for £26.56 so this is great !!! but i am confused because when you say it supports 3 fans does that mean 3 fans including the fan that comes with my CPU or 3 extra fans can be added on top of that ? plus woukd you recommend changing my CPU fan ? Thank you very much for all the help you are giving me :)

Personally I wouldn't get Noctua fans because they would be very expensive for me, but since you can get them for a good price and only need two I say go for it! Your stock CPU fan will work fine, and if you decide you want to go inexpensive on your other fans you can get Cougar or Coolermaster Blade Master Fans.

If you are going to go with the FX 8320 you need to get a 990chipset board instead of a 970. You should also consider a 550-650w power supply depending on weather or not you would like to overclock at some point. I suggest if you can afford it, that you get the Western Digital 2TB Black HDD drive instead of the seagate, well worth the extra money in terms of reliability and longevity.

ok so if I am going to use the Midi tower case in my original build all these components will still fit? because I asked my friend who owns a full tower and the same graphics card as I am going to purchase and he said his graphics card barely fitted into his full tower so I just want to be %100 sure that the midi tower will fit all these components
