    I count 5 but I don't do tech speak? Lol
    Edit:my husband has confirmed five :)

    The pump takes up one of the CPU fan headers, while the secondary header runs the two rear fans of the cooler in PWM mode. The three remaining system fan headers on the motherboard are used for the other two cooler fans and the final system fan, which is a red LED 120mm rear exhaust.

    Yeah looks like 5.

    "Cooling Cooler Master Nepton 240M (4 x 120mmm fans), 1 x 120mm rear exhaust fan"

    Cooler Master's Nepton 240M has been selected for CPU cooling, and it's installed as a front intake with push-pull fans, which should help to cool the GPU as well. The pump takes up one of the CPU fan headers, while the secondary header runs the two rear fans of the cooler in PWM mode. The three remaining system fan headers on the motherboard are used for the other two cooler fans and the final system fan, which is a red LED 120mm rear exhaust. These were all set to a fixed 60 percent fan speed in the BIOS. Ideally, we would prefer the front and rear fans of the cooler to all be the same model and run with the same settings in the BIOS, but this is a minor niggle – as long as they get the job done without too much noise we aren't too fussed.

    5 is correct - 3 fans off the system fan headers and 2 fans off the secondary cpu fan header.
