I want to order another 80mm fan for my rear exhaust but I dunno which type of bearings are the best to have? Hydra Wave? Hypro? Triple Ball?

Right now I'm looking at either Panaflos, or the SilenX ones, but the silenX fans are 14 bucks a peice. However, 28 CFM @ 14 dBa is very tempting. Of course this could be thier MAX cfm, and MINIMAL dBa. Thier site doesn't list them at having ranged RPM modes though, just a fixed 2200 RPM's at the one I'm looking at. Here is a link, they have variances of the different sized fans. Anyone used these before? Also, which 80mm Panaflos have the highest CFM?
 
My friend just gave me a 120mm Nidec fan that I'm going to use for my blowhole. Has anyone used these before? Are they decent fans?
