Cheap, effective, silent. Pick two.

I found the best is to use a fan controller. Tune the noise and performance to your needs.

Many Thanks for all your input. As for Expensive fans I don't mind paying for a good and near enough silent fan is all good ;-)

So I will try the NF-F12s and the Silent Wings 2 and see which ones I like the sound of... Again Cheers Guys for all your Help :-D

I'm not 100% sure Silent Wings 2 can be used as a radiator fan because of the unusal mounting method. If it does, you will have to use the rubber mounts as the hard plastic ones can't be screwed all the way through.

I've seen shadow wings used on a h100 a couple of times before though

Before you screw one fan in (as the screw will probably thread the rubber mount), check that you can fit 2 of them side by side. I think the edges are out a tiny bit further than a standard 120mm fan.
