Fan choice for H100i at high heat loads

I got myself an H100i kit recently and has been running it with a stable 4.2Ghz overclock on a first gen Core i7 930, with default fans

Now i'm thinking to upgrade my fans since the stock ones make quite a bit of noise at high rpm. The question is, however, which fans can i get that will perform as good, since I need to run the stock fans at 2200 at least to keep the temperatures under control at 100% load in prime95.

I was thinking of noctua fans, since they have decent specs at highest rpm, while probably being more silent than the sp's from h100i kit.

Noctua is a very good choice indeed.

If you don't mind the color scheme that is :p.

You might want to look at BeQuiet SilentWing fans.

I just recommend you pick a PWM fan.
