140mm Fan for H90

I have an H90 but i've found that the stock Corsair fan is pretty damn loud. Can anyone recommend a decent 140mm fan for a rad (in pull) that offers a good balance between sound and performance?

 

I've also had the idea of using a 120mm fan with an adapter as I've seen some tests done that show that out performing 140mm fans in some situations. Anyone have first hand experience with that? 

 

Thanks in advance.

For 140mm fans, you could go with a Noctua or a BitFenix Spectre Pro.

I've got the 140mm BitFenix Spectre Pro fans on my HAF XB and ill be using them so cool a 280mm rad soon.

All i can say is that they're pretty quiet and they look good, and they move a decent amount of air at 500-600 rpm

I have an H90 as well. I purchased the Fractal XL R2 case. I used the stock fan in pull and used the rear exhaust fractal fan in push. I'm looking to replace these with the Noctua NF-A14 PWM which just came out it has the highest static pressure of Noctua's 140mm fan line.

I just wished Phobya released a 140mm of their Nano-2G fan. The LED lighting effect on that in the dark is just boss.

I'm afraid they don't. You're thinking of 140mm AF fans, unless Bristol is special. ;)
