I have never built a rig before allways bought store boughts but am going to build a rig with a buddy who knows how to build pc's but he has mostly built business pc's.

So my question is a newb one.

I got a CM stacker and it comes with 3 fans allready but i am going to add 3 more(2 in the rear and another on the side:crossflow).So my question is will my power supply have anough space to hook up all the fans plus the other extra's that i plan to add on it?I am going with a PC Power and Cooling 510 SLI power supply.Is their some kind of special adapter or somthing that i can hook all the fans onto so it does not take up too many slots on the power supply?



here is the case

just a idea of what's going in here.....

AMD X2 3800 OR X2 4400
Asus A8N-SLI-Premium or Crossfire
Zalman 9500 or Coolermaster hyper 6+
2 GB Crucial Value Series Ram
Maxtor 300GB DM10
2x 6800 Ultra or X850 XT PE(depends on motherbaord)
2x SilenX 80mm fans + Coolermaster Crossflow Fan
PC Power and Cooling 510 SLI Deluxe
SB Audigy2 ZS
Coolermaster Musketeer Tach
Vantec Nexus NXP-201 Fan Controller
CM stacker comes with 2x120mm and 1 80mm fans allready.
Coolermaster Ultra Aurora Cold Cathode Tube,Blue

I think i have a decent rig in the makings......any thoughts or suggestions....................
 
It should have enough. But if it does not PC Power and Cooling will modify the PSU for as many as you want....you just have to ask and pay for it.

PC Power and Cooling will still redo the wiring harness for you for a fee if you run into any issues.
