There's no single best fan. It's why there isn't just one available. 

Depending on where the fan is being used, there are different designs that excel.

 

If you would like fan recommendations, list your specs, where you're planning to use the fans, where you're shopping/located, and your budget.

If you ever need help with a build, read the following before posting: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/3061-build-plan-thread-recommendations-please-read-before-posting/
Also, make sure to quote a post or tag a member when replying or else they won't get a notification that you replied to them.

I mean, Silent wings meet at least aestethics and noise IMO (you see it is a subjective thing, for instance I don't need bling fans), maybe the noctuas shuffle a bit more air, but I think the silent wings are a good compromise of noise and performance.

Well, I'm looking for a led fan, (red) and it has to be good looking and good performance and it has to be 120mm. Also I do HEAVY gaming (5-10 hours a day) and just school work in general.

The Hyper 212 EVO seems to be a good choice. It's quieter than AMD's Wraith Cooler and great for overclocking.

Maybe it's just me but the Silent Wings 3 sound terrible imho. The buzzing noise they emit thanks to their three phase motor design is terrible! Noctua's iPPC fans are affected by this issue too.

There is no "best" fan. It all boils down to your preferences. Maybe the new 120mm Noctua fan will be the "best" fan. Who knows!
