Akasa Piranha or Viper?

I'm choosing between the Akasa Piranha or Viper for heatsink and case fans, which one would you say is better as they are very similar in spec?

My basket at Overclockers UK:

1 x Three Fan Bundle - Akasa 120mm Piranha High Performance PWM Air Ripper Blade Fan= £15.95
1 x Three Fan Bundle - Akasa AK-FN059 120mm Ultra Quiet Venom Viper Cool Fan - 3/4 Pin= £25.99

Total: £52.44
(includes shipping: £10.50)

Had both on a k2 heatsink, despite having the same speed range the piranha's performed a few c better than the vipers. Not as brash looking as the vipers either.

I've just been using Aerocool Sharks on my case not that bad but they seem to fail quite fast, normally within 2 years for me.

What case are you putting them into and how are you controlling them?
