Do you already have the systems built? Liquid cooling isn't the best solution if you're looking for a system to be as quiet as possible. 

If you're sticking with the AIO's, I don't suppose you actually need the systems to be that quiet and there are plenty of quieter fans available. 

Some good case fans include

NF-A15: http://pricespy.co.nz/product.php?p=1516516

For the rad

I need some suggestions on what fans to get for two different computers (Both use 120mm).

 

The server needs to have the quietest fans possible the computer specifically will be using a 240 rad for the cpu plus one extra fan as an exhaust.

The PC is the same (For the cpu/noise) but since I will be having a full graphics card etc in their I might need a bit more airflow? So noise is important but airflow would also be kinda useful, I plan to have 2-4 Intake fans and 2-3 Outtake fans for this pc.

 

What would you recommend? I was thinking of just going with noctua since its favored alot by LTT but they have different versions so Im still unsure? As for budget lower is always better but I don't mind though preferably nothing more than $40-50 per fan (NZD).

They are excellent and as good as Noctua's offerings.
