    panaflo hi flow or vantec tornado?

    would the higher CFM of the tornado be worth the earsplitting noise from it, or would the lower noise of the panaflo outweight the more advanced cooling of the tornado? please discuss, feel free to shoot some opinions in here, bias is welcome :p this would be coupled with a thermalright xp-90c
