Need a high cfm 80mm fan

Well I am gonna try to lower the case temps even more then they are now.I like the idea of cooler is better so I need some help here.

I have a 120mm yate loon fan for exhaust in the rear of my case now.I am gonna replace it with a scythe ultra kaze 120 mm fan.

I am using a vantec stealth fan for exhaust on the side of my case and this is a 80mm fan.This fan works but it does not push like I want.I want something with hi airflow and hi cfm.

What do you guys suggest? I am gonna be buying from newegg unless one of you guys have a hi cfm fast 80mm fan you can spare.

I dont have room for a 120 mm fan on the side.I wish I did I could just get another ultra Kaze and call it a day but I cant.(LOL)

Wat?

CFM is airflow.

Whatever fans you use and where ever you put them, CFM in should be about equal to CFM out. Otherwise the fans are just working against each other.

 
err with that 120mm i doubt air flow is the limiting factor for your case. anyways if the side fan has trouble blowing out air its because you are running negative pressure which is fine..but they are all forcing sucking air through the intake vents and fighting the restriction. if you go mad with the 80mm you might well reduce the exhaust of the other fans😛 anyways such fans are poor at fighting back pressure. if you want a vac case you gotta stack them in series or some nutty setup. mostly pointless, beyond a certain mount you get diminishing returns and deafness. you need better heatsinks..or go water cooling.
 
With my second computer build back in '01, I used 6 of the tornadoes. My reasoning was that airflow at the cost of hearing was worth it. Lets just say my family hated it and in the end it drove me crazy when I was trying to sleep and download something.
