I just wanted to know what would give better cooling,
I have the HAF 932 full tower case which allows me to have either, 4 x 120mm fans or 1 x 240 fan on the side of the case.
I was wondering which of these two would be better.

Blowing air IN

4 x Scythe Gentle Typhoon 120mm 5400 RPM Cooling Fan + Fan controller
- Maximum air flow, CFM ±10%: 150.1
- Maximum noise level, dB(A): 50.5
- Maximum fan speed, RPM ±10%: 5400
- Power Consumption: 13.68 W
- Rated Current: 1.14 A
- Starting Current: 2.69 A

or

Current setup:
1 x BitFenix Spectre PRO 230mm
- Current (A): 0.41A ±10%
- Speed (RPM): 900 RPM ±10%
- Air Flow (CFM): 156.27 CFM ±10%
- Air Pressure (mmH2O): 1.81 mmH2O
- Noise (dB-A): 25.6 dB(A)

Cheers
 
If you want the most air, the 4x120mm will give the more I'm sure. The 230mm is likely to be quieter while still shifting lots. If it were me I'd get 1 big fan.
