Hi,
I have read that SP120 are better for the heatsink of the Hyper 212x, but others say that the AF120 is better, so I don't know what to do.

Really, what is the best for the Hyper 212x?.

SP=Static pressure so the SP120 obviously 

The AF120 is better. http://www.silentpcreview.com/article1342-page4.html

The SP120's advantage in static pressure shines in more restricted areas like rads but not on heatsinks which are less dense.

Like said by Wooden, air cooled heatsinks dont really make use of SP fans as well as radiators do

 

cant go wrong with AF fans at all especially for the price.

Neither. Fractal Design's Venturi (HP) series is much, much, much better and quieter too.
