Hi mate,
In my opinion Antec Tricool make the best 120mm fans, they have a 3 spped selector and they move more air than any other fan I've witness and they look cool as well with a choice of red, green, blue leds.
if you search for Antec 900 case on utube then u can see the case empty with just the fans and it shows them on each speed and you can actually hear the difference

Is it open air or attached to a heatsink/rad? Some are more suited to higher pressure on HSF or higher flow rate for case fans.

For price/performance I'd recommend the medium/high Yate Loons, especially the curved blade ones if you can find them.

What's the controller? Or its channel wattage rating.
There's a Silverstone FM122 high CFM fan that comes with its own rheostat if the controller is a problem. For a case fan the Sharkoon 2000 Silent Eagle (GolfBall) is a medium that moves quite a lot of air for the noise, only 0.18A/2.16W.

I'm using this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BB-003-SY
Just the intake has the hardrives so I'm really not putting much air into the case so need a powerful fan to take it out plus improve the intake.
I'm using scythe fans at the moment but they really aren't that powerful.
I don't think my fan controller can handle deltas. I may be wrong

The controller can handle 1A per channel and a 107CFM Delta WFB1212HE uses about 0.6A iirc, so that one would be ok. The Delta monster 190CFM FFB1212EHE 120x38mm would use 2A and kill it dead.
