Hi there! I've been looking around for some after market case fans and not quite sure what to pick. Don't really have a budget in mind. Rgb is nice, but not a must.

 

Here is what I've been thinking I'd need.

Front: 3x 120mm fan

Top: 2x 140mm on the nzxt x62 rad

Rear: 1x 140mm

 

I thought about going for the NZXT Aer fans so I'd only need to use Asus and NZXT's software. But are the fans Static pressure or air flow? It really confuses me.

Be Quiet has some great quiet fans that would fit in there well. If you want RGB, then look at the Corsair LL series fans (Warning: Very expensive) or you could look at other options from NZXT or Thermaltake.

Aer fans are more airflow-oriented and aren't much of upgrade if any from the stock GP-14 X2's included with the case and don't perform better than the included Aer P140's on the X62. 

The included fans in the case and on the AIO should already be plenty of cooling.
