effective quiet fan combination

Trying to decide between 4 80mm fans. Either 4 Panaflos low volume 24cfm at 21dba or 4 Ultra Cool 29cfm at 25dba running 2000rpm.

My system is using the Antec SX840 case with Epox 8K7A. Swiftech MC370-OA with standard Papst 60mm fan. Graphics card will have a fan on it.

Basically wondering if I should go for the Ultra Cool fans that move more air as the other components would overpower the noise of these?
 
Sorry, didn't know you were in England😱

Anyway, just go for the 29cfm fan. At 25db, its still quiet. You won't really notice fan noise till it goes upwards of 30db.
 
Hey muppet,
try fronzen silicon. I ordered the absolut quiet 12dbA Papst 8412NGL Fans from there. They take international orders.

BTW, if you need help in ordering the stuff, I can help you (the page is in German)
 
Would you recommend the CPU-COOL AG for a Thermalright SK6? Anand's description of the Delta fans are frightening!
