Ok which currently would you say is a really  good 140 static pressure fan and a very good 140 airflow fan?  I only need one fan for front of my case which would you recommend? My   case which is a  Phanteks primo, i would like to mention i have removed the front plate from the primo so there is no obstruction  expect for a grill and dust filter which is normal.

Is there anything obstructing the front of your case within a 2ft-ish range? If not, go air flow. If there is, go static pressure.

There is a dust filter to be fair.

I would get a Corsair AF140 Quiet Edition, it's airflow optimized and pretty silent (not the LED ones, those are bad)

A good alternative that has LED are the Antec TrueQuiet 140mm.

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

Expect for the grill and dust filter before the fan there is nothing really obstructing inside of the case like hard drive cage.

Are your legs directly in front of the fans or anything? I've seen people have that problem.

Nope, my legs are far far away from the case.
