I would like to know the same thing.  At least now I can just read off the replies to your topic! :D  Thanks for posting this.  I'm looking for some simple 120 mm internal fans.  You won't see these fans from the outside, so aesthetics don't matter to me.

If you want static pressure fans as intakes, be prepared to run them at high speeds and thus incur more noise. A fan like the NF-F12 will do well as an intake, but only if run at moderate or high speeds; the shallow blade angle prevents optimum performance at lower speeds.

That left out the most important information for fan recommendations: case and heatsink/radiators.
