I need some 120mm fans with relatively high pressure and are relatively quiet. I mean quiet, not silent...I'm willing to trade a little noise for performance.
In other words..NO NEXUS or SILENX fans, but rather the kind you would use on a heatsink with dense fins. I will be using these fans for a heatsink, and as intake fans with filters to make the case positively pressured to keep out dust.
Here are a few examples, I would like to know what you guys think about them, or any others you might recommend.
1.Delta 120x38mm Triple Blade LOW SPEED. 76 CFM, 35db

2. Panaflo 120x38mm L1 LOW SPEED. 69 CFM, 30db

3. Scythe 120x25mm S-Flex 1600rpm. 64 CFM, 28db

4. Yate Loon 120x25mm. 48 CFM, 28db

I already own one of the aforementioned Scythe S-flex 1600rpm fans. I know its not 28db at full speed, but its relatively quiet.
I am really interested to know what you guys think about the Delta and Panaflo's I have listed. If these fans don't perform up to spec, should I just save my money and get the tried and true Yate Loons?
If there are any other fans that fit into this category, please mention them.
