Would someone help me find a high cfm/rpm 120MM fan. I want the biggest and baddest 120mm DC fan you can find.

I would recommend you the PANAFLO FBA12G12U1A....it's the best fan considering performance to noise ratio.
I think it's been discontinued by Panasonic....it's a pity...on Ebay you can find them really cheap. Type Panaflo and hit search....that's all.
Hope this helps!

Edit: On Ebay I've only been able to find the H1A (103 cfm), for 9,99 USD:
Like new Panaflo H1A!!
This site has them in stock:
www.2cooltek.com
This site too:
www.jab-tech.com
One more site (there are more, cuz it's a very reputed fan):
www.heatsinkfactory.com

you guys are retarded, if your going to live with 70 dB of noise, why not get a 50 cm room fan and set it on high. that will move way more than 200 cfm.

exactly!! small table fans would move that amount of air and will be quieter!! I stick to 20dba or under rule.. anything more is unbearable when the A/C trips..

If you can afford be a PCP&C elitist...Why question a $50 fan if it meets your needs??
I could tell you where to buy a 12V fan that drives 230+cfm for < $20 but I won't because
you have been a nasty dude in the past. Besides, you would question it's quality anywho.

But I think the best for reasonable money is the Sanyo Denki that Petra's sells: SD120x38. The Sanyo has a very large hub, so for some applications another fan might be more suitable. Great for exhaust fan, radiator fan for WC or on some radial heatsinks.

.bh.

The fan was a Delta 120x76mm ............

I bet you would need to install that on the outside of the case so that it was protruding on the exterior, I doubt there are many cases where that thing would not be bumbing something like a CPU or video card....

Heh! Depends on the case, no?

I'm going with water works pretty soon. I plan to run 6x120mm intakes on my radiator, all internal, and they won't touch anything -- believe me on this! Deciding on the color is the hard part!

Um... orange, I think... ;)
