AF is to be used as exhaust, and intake when there's nothing in the way. SP is for radiators and intake with restrictions like a hard drive cage, or something else which is close to the intake fan.

 

So get what was designed for your situation.

Just leave the stock fans on there. Or, get NF-F12s.

I just HATE how people only see NF-F12's as an option . THEY AREN'T EVEN THE BEST RAD FANS FOR GOD SAKE! There are so much better options out there , Noiseblocker , Scythe , Be quiet and maybe even Silverstone.

I really dislike Noctuas for their color. That's why i bought bequiet. But recently i bought some cheapo Arctic F12 and F9 fans and they moved one hellofalot more air than the bequiet 140 that i have, while not even being loud. I wonder how noctuas perform but i actually don't want to shove my money inside their beige asses.

who cares...

Well bequiet has some ''bad'' fans I really only reccomend the Bequiet Silent wings 2 120MM PWM for Radiator use really. ( Which are on par with noctuas and look much nicer.)

I once saw the SW 2 120s, they've got good air pressure and flow.

I have the SW 2 140mm as case fans. I have a subtle feeling that all 140 mm fans just straight out perform bad. especially static pressure wise, which is obvious, but also airflow wise. But i actually don't want to go down to 120 mm fans, because my case can fit 140s and 120s would look silly.

who cares...
