So more recently i have been looking to upgrade my computer and was looking for help on if my motherboard can handle all of new specs. I am really wondering if my motherboard can support a lot of fans. The MOBO that i have right now is

Right now I am only using the stock heatsink taking up the cpu fan in which i am going to upgrade my cpu cooler to a:

In which i can hook this up the the cpu fan right?
Since i am upgrading to a new case which is:

This case comes with a fan and was wondering if i can hook that one up and if i am able to hook any more fans to my mother board. And is there anyway possible to hook up more fans to my computer?

That motherboard has a CPU fan header and 2 system fan headers. That's not really a lot at all, but you should still be OK with a little ingenuity. You can use Y-adapters to attach up to 2 fans to each header as long as you stay under 1 amp per header. Beyond that, you could add a fan controller if you need to install even more fans.
