What model of Noctua will be the most efficient and quiet for replacement on my Hyper 212+? My second choice would be a red LED Corsair but not sure which model would be the best.

 

Thanks

NF-F12

 

Personally, I would get Scythe Gentle Typhoons or NB Eloops instead.

if he is willing to get ugly noctuas and dosen't care how they look why would you recommend worse fans? :D

Worse?

I had noctua NF-F12s and switched to GTs and they're quieter/give around the same temps.

GT's are EOL for quite some time now. (except the 500rpm version)

You can get them still on frozen CPU/ncix / amazon most of the time, and GT's are better than nf-f12's in the testing I did when I switched, and in martin's liquid lab testing:

NF-F12 or Eloops as Ninja said, please don't get corsair though.
