Hello,

I'm just after some advise of what would be a good set of case fans to use.

the case I am looking at is this one

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-161-NX&groupid=2362&catid=35

I shall be keeping the two fans that come with the case (back and top) but down the line I will be getting this AIO cooler

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HS-025-CS

for the mean time I can fit two 120mm fans to the front of the case.

can anyone recommend some good case fans that are quite but have good air flow which I can then use on the AIO cooler as well later down the line?

thanks a lot

In a word: Nope.

Generally, case fans move high volumes of air (Air Flow), while those used on cooler heatsinks or AIO radiators are better at forcing air through restricted spaces (Static Pressure).
Two different uses, two different fan types.

Having said that - Many SP fans do OK in AF situations and vice versa. A good friend of mine uses Corsair AF140s through his radiator and gets great results.

I am a fan (ha ha, never gets old) of Noctua fans, myself, but other good makes include Corsair, the EK Varder fans and the Blacknoise NB eLoop range.
I would suggest reading up a bit on each kinds, to help you understand which you'd want and why.
