Case Cooling & temps

Looking for good quality quiet case fan recommendations, am after putting in a 80mm at the front & replacing my 120mm fan at the back. Thanks.

PS didn't know if this thread goes in case or overclocking/cooling forum.

Thanks for info, have just run speed fan test with orthos running & under full load, temp for cpu is running at 56c is this ok, seems a bit high as this is before i overclock, am going to get a new cooler an artic cooling freezer 7 pro, hope this will lower temp, on checking i have a front intake fan it just hidden by hard disc & not connected, is now connected, but doesn't seem to have altered temps. Are stock case fans worth replacing or are they usually ok. Thanks
