Hi, I'm trying to shop for fans but there are so many I don't want to make a bad buy.

I want to replace the fans in my 550D and when I buy a H100i I will probably want to replace those fans too.

The Noctua fans are too expensive but I don't want to buy cheap fans. Wit the case being a 550D and it has sound dampening maybe quietness isn't too important, just performance?

Thanks for the help.

I don't want molex fans, I want them to connect to my motherboard.

What would be good fans to buy to replace the stock H100i fans? Would SP120's do it?

Also I am looking for a good 200mm fan to go on the side panel.

Update: I managed to get a cheap H100 so I'm gonna use that. What would be good 120 fans to replace the stock fans with? Noisy fans are fine as the 550D has sound reduction foam.

I have Scythe Slip Stream (120mm) fans that I'm pretty happy with. They're reasonably priced at around $10 each and they blow quite a bit of air. I actually have six of them in my case. ;)
 
Got 6 slipstreams in my case too. Lots of air and fairly quiet. I get 34db right at the front
 
Also I have a problem determining the size of the side panel fan, almost every site I look at gives me a different number. Does anyone know for sure what the size is of the single side fan mount on the 550D?
 
It looks like 2x120mm fans, should be same size fans as on the back of the case
 
I would check out the cougar vortex'x. They are really nice fans that won't break the bank.
