So I am going to be building a mini ITX pc for college and am wondering if high static pressure fans are needed for pushing air through a radiator?  I know you need them to pull air through a radiator but I'm not exactly a pro at aerodynamics.

 

Build: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/DkD8JV

Rad: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/CrDzK8/corsair-cpu-cooler-cw9060025ww

Rad fans: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/shCwrH/corsair-case-fan-co9050014ww

Case fans: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/yYkD4D/corsair-case-fan-co9050009ww

 

I am switching out the H100i v2 fans because reviews have said they are too loud.

 

Any help would be appreciated.  And feel free to comment on the build or give advice.

Yes, as higher static pressure is required to push air (pushing and pulling make no difference) properly through a radiator

The rule of thumb is if you need to move air through any kind of restrictive object, use static pressure. So yes.

I am getting the SP120 PWM Performance editions but I hope those are quiet enough.

Ok I'll try them out they just have less than half the mm/H2O than the quiet ones so I was questioning.
