Need some fan suggestions (difficulty inside)

Not very many color options when buying 80mm fans. Noctua has a beige frame and gray Redux line, Fractal has a black frame with a white fan, and Be Quiet is black with a similar frame. Those are the fans that I would consider low noise. Most other 80mm fans are black with a very square frame and tend to be noisy even at the lowest RPM whether they are 3 pin or 4 pin PWM. I never seen a 80mm fan with RGB or LED that only had a ring of light around the frame. You would most likely have to paint/mod the fan if you were to stay with 80mm white.

 

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3950X   Motherboard: MSI X570 Gaming Edge Wifi   Case: Deepcool Maxtrexx 70   GPU: RTX 3090   RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 3x16GB 3200 MHz   PSU: Super Flower 850W

Apparently I"m a moron (who knew, right?) and can't measure right. Seems the fans are actually 120mm, which changes my options a bit...

NOTE: I no longer frequent this site. If you really need help, PM/DM me and my e.mail will alert me.
