kaninja Scythe Gentle Typhoons.
This. Noctua is also a good choice if the price isn't too much different.

I want good airflow and some good looks lol. I love the name "Scythe Gentle Typhoons" but the color grey was such a turn down. Thanks for the recommendations, i guess i should choose performance over looks.

Thanks i'll get the 3000rpm then :) By the way i made a thread about overclocking my cpu and asked advice on how to place the rear fan and the cpu, so far no one replied and i'm afraid that cpu area doesn't get much attention, if you guys can check it out and give me your thoughts i would be so thankful! http://forums.evga.com/tm.aspx?m=2073805#2073805

by the way just checked my case antec 900 on newegg and its at $200! thats almost twice over other cases which are much better, why my case is so more expensive, it makes me feel a proud owner :)

Antec's 200mm fans are proprietary, you won't get any better most likely. Leave that alone and get GentleTyphoons. The 3000 RPM model isn't needed for your case, it won't help much and you'll have to deal with extra noise. I'd get the 1850 RPM or 2150 RPM models. And don't get Scythe Slipstreams or Ultra Kazes, those are garbage.

Thanks for the advise, is it a good idea to have the zalman fan exhausting air out of the top fan and have the rear fan blowing air to the zalman fan too? I plan to oc my cpu to 4.5 and would like to keep it as cool as possible. I bought also some rubber gaskets for my new skythe gentle fans, does it matter what brand the rubber gaskets are?
