Need help looking for a new static pressure fan for my H80i?

Hi. I recently got an FX 8350 Black Edition with an H80i liquid cooler from Corsair. Of course, with any unlocked CPU, I overclock it. I've raised voltage a slight bit and the clock to 4.4GHz and did some prime95 tests. They're actually pretty high, and although they are still a few degrees below the safe line, I'm not about to take any chances with my brand new rig, and plus I've got some money lying around that's left over from my build. I've heard that static pressure fans are really effective for use in radiators, and the radiator fan I'm using right now is either a quiet fan or the fan that came with the H80i cooler, so I could make use of a new fan. I've heard some really good things about Noctua brand fans, but that's only for noise level. I'm not completely sure if the actual cooling performance is good. All I need is a good 120mm static pressure fan :) Any suggestions would be appreciated

Corsair SP120 Quiet Edition or Performance edition or Noctua NF-F12, those are the fans i would choose if i was looking for static pressure fans.

So do you care about noise at all or no?

Delta fans and the scythe ultra kaze have some extremely high static pressure, at 45dBa+ of course...

Noctua NF-F12

Corsair SP120

Scythe Gentle Typhoon

Alphacool NB-E Loops

Noiseblocker Black Silent Pros

 

All of these are great options. You will only need one fan because push pull only increases performance minuscule-y on thin radiators such as the H80i. Push or Pull will be fine.

H80i is one of the thickest AIOs at 38mm.

The H80i already comes with the SP12 fans from Corsair.

QUOTE ME IN A REPLY SO I CAN SEE THE NOTIFICATION!

I actually like how they look, and don't think they are all that loud.  Might give the Noctuas a try if I can find any in my country.
