Cougar comes to mind immediately. Got a few of those running in my wife's PC, and they're solid. Aerocool DS is a fan I've used plenty of times because they're quiet, they're powerful, they're effective on heatsinks or as airflow, and their LED fans don't suck. Anything by beQuiet is good, and if you're ok with poop-colored fans or paying a premium for normal-colored ones, Noctua is also top-shelf stuff.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

Phanteks makes good stuff. Never used them personally so I can't recommend, but yeah, they have a good reputation.
