Hi,

 

 

      As stated above, need list of cheap fans (Maybe 10-15$) that are acceptably quiet, thanks! 

 

 

     Edit: 120 mm fans to be exact Thanks!

Thanks the higher the CFM the better right? im also looking for one 120mm in the exhaust at the back, are SP120's good?

SP120's are loud. The fan wouldn't change for intake or exhaust but instead what you're pushing air through.
