Which 80mm fans should I get.

[TazExprez]

I am building a PC with the following:
-X2 5050e
-8GB G.Skill 4x2GB RAM
-WD Caviar Black 640GB HDD
-Asus M3A78-EM
-Corsair 450VX
-Samsung DVD Burner
-Silverstone SUGO SG01-BF Case

I would like three fans that are nearly silent, or even silent. I was looking at the following:
-Noctua NF-R8 80mm
-ENERMAX UC-8EB
I am leaning toward the Noctua fans. What do you think? Thanks for any help.

I would buy those enermax over the noctuas, but mostly because of price.

Have you considered buying cheap fans even if they're loud and a fan controller to quiet them down?

Scythe KAMA FLEX SA0825FDB12l 80mm Case Fan - Retail

I'd suggest that one its a good balance of performance and noise plus its got an SFDB so should last longer.

I have an older Antec Performance Plus 1080 case with a swinging door that covers the drive bays. I wonder if those knobs would stick out too far for the door to close correctly.

I used those Enermax fans in the same case(well almost the same, mine was just SG02-B model) I built for a relative. They are dead silent, I can't even hear them.
Also, changing the fan that is fixed to the side of the hard drive cage is a pita.
