Looking for Quiet 120mm fan

Any ideas?

Looking for a fan to put in my new Antec P160 case. I will probably move the stock fan to the front to blow over the HDDs (2x 200gb Barracudas) and use this one in the back as the exhaust. I tried a cheap Kingwin fan and it sounded like a damn leaf blower from 20 feet away. Silence is a necessity.:thumbsup:
 
Panaflows are supposed to be pretty good from what i've heard. They arent quiet at max speeds, but when you turn them down with your controller they will be near silent and still move a nice amount of air!

Oh, BTW, the max noise is 35 db's, which isnt really all that loud to begin with.
 
An Antec 120mm Pro Series Fan attached to a "FAN ONLY" thermally controlled connector on a PSU makes for a pretty quiet job. Mine spins at like 1000 on idle, which is about 20 dBA. And it'll spin faster as your system and PSU heat up.
 
SilenX fans are by far the quietest fans on the market. They are rated at only 14dB and are exactly that. I have 4 in my case and my computer is dead silent. If you are looking for a silent fan, then SilenX is the way to go. They are however a little overpriced
