Well the link doesn't work, you'll have to cite each item. But to answer your question, my case has six fans in it, and they all came WITH the case or videocard/CPU. I honestly don't need any more fans. Before you buy extra, I would say look at what your case already has.

Its not number of fans that matters, its airflow. One fan at 120 air flow is better than 2 at 55. As long as total outgoing airflow is like 30 CFM your fine(assuming your not overclocking). Make sure you get filters for all intake fans.

Thats also an expensive fan.... there are fans for $3 that have more airflow than that.

I have an NZXT LEXA case. Counting the fans, I have one on the top of the case, one in the front, one in the back, and one on the side. The case provides great airflow, and also looks really damn cool.
