I was thinking of getting three of these fans to replace the stock ones in my enthoo pro. I was wondering if they were any good or if there are any other fans that you could suggest

Yes, get those noiseblockers, undervolt them and have a quiet, cool system. They're good fans, I personally prefer the e-loops, but largely because of their design more than performance.

Use an adapter, or software if possible. TBH you dont need to undervolt them unless you think they're too loud, but that's fairly unlikely when it comes to noiseblocker

Yes but make sure you run them below 1000rpm, you might wanna get the slower RPM versions.   At low RPM's they are AMAZINGLY quiet, I have the 120mm variants and they are some of the quietest fans I've ever heard, and I have zero tolerance for loud fans.

CPU: i7 3770k@ 4.6Ghz@ 1.23v - GPU: Palit GTX 660ti - MOBO: Asrock Extreme 4 - RAM: Corsair vengeance 8GB 1600Mhz - PSU: OCZ 650watt - STORAGE: 128Gb corsair force GT SSD/ 1TB seagate barracuda 7200rpm
