Need 4 fans (2 for case, 2 for TRUE) - looking at either some Enermax Clusters or Noctua NF-S12 / NF-P12...

What's going to be best for quietness / ideally controlled by pwm or permanently slowed + reasonable performance?

Would 2 Noctua P12's (for the TRUE) and 2 S12's (for the case) be better than 4 P12's or vice versa? It seems that the P12's actually push more air & have a higher static pressure than the S12's when run at less than full speed... something that might mean having 4 P12's better sense?

The Enermax seem pretty stylish and are quite a bit cheaper but not sure how they compare?
 
I got 1 or 2 clusters for my build ;).

Had 2 plugged in using the molex connectors and they got a little bit noisy, but just changing them to the mobo headers makes them miles quieter but they still seem to shift the same amount of air :confused: no idea why
