so every test and every person i read about uses the scythe s-flex fan. however, after a junked antec case, i was wondering if the antec tri cool fans would work just as well. sound is no issue for me.

the scythe s-flex (on newegg) has only 63.7 cfm of flow

there is another scythe model that is cheaper, but has a higher flow

here is the antec fan, which has specs of 79 cfm.

which is best for the thermalright ultra 120 extreme of these three? sound and price are not an issue here
 
I'm trying to decide the same thing.

It appears that the claims made by SilenX that their fans can do 90CFM and be in-audible are somehow false..

So what are we left with? Anything above 25 dbA is too much in my taste.
