Best LED fan with good enough static pressure to use on CPU heatsink?

I know the 140mm Thermalright TY-140 are great performing fans, problem is currently I'm thinking of upgrading my system and grabbing some of these Crucial CL8 DDR3 LED rams :D

Might need the extra 10mm from going 140mm to 120mm in order to sit the fan over the headspread :D

I know going to a 120mm fan would most likely be loudly and slightly worse on cooling performance, but since I am not planning on overclocking like crazy (haven't decided on going for i3 2120 or i5 2500K overclocking to no higher than 4.5GHz yet), so I think would got for some LED instead since my 690II Advanced has Windowed panel :p

Yea sorry forgot to mention, the fan mount is indeed for 120mm, so I'm looking at 120mm LED fans...and as I said above...might need the extra 10mm space for the heatspread on the ram lol

However, the ugliest fans are the best performers lol.

I just switched to WC from using a Silver Arrow Heatsink with TY-140's and they're awesome, very silent, great airflow and static pressure, I have 4 of them still and they are one of the best performers IMO.
haha yea....can't fault the TY-140 at all on performance and quietness...but the look is butt ugly. I can't understand why they would use plastic like that! :D
