Get something like a corsair AF120 performance edition fan and hook it up to a fan controller. Through your case, it'll sound like a near-silent hum. If a fan really only puts out 8dba of noise close by, it won't push a lot of air. An added bonus with a louder fan and a fan controller is that you can have quiet when you don't want to hear your computer and cooling performance when you need it.

Hope this helps! :D
