Help with case fans

[tom_taylor97]

I have been looking to change the fans in my case but I'm not very knowledgeable about fans so i dont know what to look for when choosing new fans. I heard that noctua fans were good so i had a look at the and compared them to the majority of other fans. I found some akasa fans that seem to be good but there are a few things i am unsure of:
- firstly are they actually good? i have little knowledge so i want other people's opinions
- It says that they are 140mm fans with 120mm fittings. does this mean it will fit on a h100i?
- if they do fit on the h100i will they do a good job at cooling?
- i watch linus tech tips and he said that he preferred the high static pressure fans as all of his case fans. Is this a good thing to do or not because i was thinking of just using these fans for all of my case fans.

These are the fans i have been looking at:

Everything you need to know about case fans.

The ones you are looking at are 14mm blades with 12 mm mounting holes.
21db @ 107cfm is amazing.
I am using the Aerocool sharks mentioned above.
They are a good quiet fan with lots of airflow. And fairly cheap.

Two of the new Akasa would not fit. (the ones in your link are too big.)
You will have to stay with a standard 120mm or 12cm fan.
You can get the standard Akasa viper in a standard 120mm frame but noise levels go up for the same air flow.

Are there any fans that you can advise? i don't care about cost as long as i get good fans but i am looking that have noise to performance ratio. Thanks

Best bang for the buck and low noise is the Aerocool shark fans.
A little better fan but a bit pricier is the Akasa Viper S flow.
Best fan you can buy at any price is Noctura. Noise vs airflow.
If you do not care about noise Cooljag Everflow or Scythe Slipstream.
