Best 90/92mm fan?

I don't recommend Arctic Cooling fans, they make great heatsink solutions but their fans have the shortest life in the biz. Nexus has 92mm fans, not sure if your heatsink works with normal 25mm thickness.
 
If you want the BEST, go with noctua NFB91600 . It's a bit pricy but the quality is top notch, not to mention it delivers great cooling while be very silent. But it is a bit pricey at $21.

Other cheaper alternatives are offerings from GELID and Coolermaster.


EDIT: I agree with the above comment, try to avoid anything Arctic Cooling.

The wider blades on the Gelid are probably more suited for use on a heatsink. Don't wider blades usually give you better static pressure as well?
the Gelid does indeed have the higher static pressure of the two (1.65mmAq vs 1.61mmAq). that being said, i don't know if the Gelid is going to be as quiet as the Noctua...
