The front of my case has a mesh bezel and I cannot decide between either air flow or static pressure?

For most cases, AF is better in the front. Unless you've got drive cages in the way of the fans, you should be better off with AF.

Unless you got absolutely nothing else besides the mesh, go for SP. Even medium-fine mesh starts to diminish the effects of AF fans.

SP fans all the way. Like Linus says. Get the Noctua NF-F12, Corsair SP120, or the Fractal Design Venturi fans!
