Here is the trick - fans do differ based on design and manufacturing but mostly the noise goes directly along with the rotation speed. Fans around 800rpm are just audible from pretty much anyone, quieter than most PSUs and hard drives (not the clicking just the spinning). The main answer is slow fans.

I'd suggest seeing how the stock fans do before looking to replace them with aftermarket fans.
