What would be better for Radiator cooling (and whole case cooling) be quiet fans vs fractial design fans on something like a NZXT H440

 

Well to be more specific for radiator fans pressure optimized fans that help push air through it is more desirable due to the restriction they have. Ones like Fractal Design Ventri (PWM), EK Vardars, and Noctua NF-F12 are good for those uses just to name a few.

In all honesty, buy what you can afford, buying fans is really difficult as there is no actual way to gauge their performance, not only that but the specs given are usually not real world scenarios unless it's someone like noctua.

 

The performance from each fan to the next will by a small margin that won't be noticeable either. If you're going for utter silence then be quiet will offer good silence per dollar.

For $15 per fan the Fractal Design Venturi's are fairly close to that price point and are very quiet, the dual pack of the Corsair QE fans are ok but aren't the most absolute silent.
