The expensive Corsair fans aren't that bad, but I'd recommend something like Be Quiet! or Noctua. Noiseblocker is good, too.

I used to be quite active here.

Well, I used to have the Performance Edition of the SP120s and they were decent performers but really loud. I'm not sure how much better the Quiets are. Try be quiet!, Noctua, Noiseblocker, EK or CRYORIG.

I am not a professional. I am not an expert. I am just a smartass. Don't try and blame me if you break something when acting upon my advice.

Performance Editions are very loud and not worth getting. The Quiet Editions are actually good.

It depends on why you're getting them. There are usually better and/or cheaper fans.
