Would like to know about some fans that would fit the black and blue theme of my rig. Info about static pressure-optimized 120 and 140mm fans and airflow optimized 120 and 140mm fans would be great. Don't really care about noise level, to me it's a matter of performance. Thanks.

Coolermaster make some nice 140mm Blue led or full black (without leds) cheap, silent and great CFM (about 60? no presure optimized tho). I have one myself and im happy with it :)

bitfenix spectre pros are awesome, so are silverstone ap121, just get what is decently priced and have a look at what they look like actually running, I personally really hate how the led's look on my coolermaster fans but love the LED's on my prolimatech red vortex's.

I would recommend the Coolermaster Sickleflows (R4) with blue leds because you don`t care about the noise. :)

You can get Be Quiet fans, all black, no LED's and they're super quiet. I think they'd match a black and blue theme and they also come in static pressure models and airflow models.

My top three fan brands in the current market are BitFenix Spectres (best flow to pressure ratio) - Noctua (best pressure among fairly silent fans if that's what you need) - and Gelid (good backup for Noctua when you need a different colour)

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

I second GEILD and Noctua. I've had pleasant experiences with both. GEILD will fit your color scheme better though.
