unfortunately you only have one sys_fan header on your mobo which means you'll need a PWN fan splitter cable. These usually allow for two fans to connect to one port on your mobo however look around and see if you can find one which supports more fan connections. For the rest of the fans, you'll need a fan to molex adapter. This adapter will allow you to connect numerous fans to the molex leads from you PSU(it looks like your PSU has molex leads but double check). Make sure the molex adapter has multiple ports for multiple fans or make sure you have more than 1 molex lead coming from your PSU. I'd say two intake fans on the front of your case, 2 exhaust fans on top, one side intake and then the fan from the h50 as a rear exhaust.

that should do it. Just make sure the fans you buy are compatible. (Also, note most fans these days come with fan to molex adapters so as long as your PSU has enough molex leads and the adapters that come with the fans are long enough to connect to the molex leads from the PSU you should be fine.) But yeah, that should do the job.
