Have not been impressed with the SP120's. I have 6 of them, and while yeah, they're quiet, they don't move a lot of air. (Yes, i understand that this is the idea of the SP family but it isn't moving much air in push pull through my H100i's rad.)

I use AF140's now and they're pretty good. Like them a lot more than the SP's I was using before.

Corsair's ringed AF/SP Quiet Editions are good.  The rest of their fans are significantly worse.
