Hey guys Ive recently built a new rig. I'm looking to upgrade my fans for the corsair h100i. I'm looking to make a push and pull configuration. The case I"m using is the Thermaltake level 10 gt snow edition. I'm looking for the "best" fans. Or If someone can point me in the right direction.

And yes i did look at the at the sticky here on Toms, but its a bit outdated so this is the reason I'm asking. Any help is great.

I bought some Noctua NF-F12's. Couldn't be happier. They perform slightly better than the stock fans at 100% with no noise.

They are a bit of money for a fan, but if performance and silence is what you are looking for, these are the best.

The stock fans are the same as the Corsair SP120 high performance fans. They really are good fans, it's just that at higher rpm they howl pretty loud. The Noctua are nearly silent at max speeds and provide slightly better temps.

Aren't the fans that come with the h100i SP120l's? L as in "lite"? I don't know if there's a performance difference with l and non l's. There are SP 120 quiet editions, which look pretty solid from what I've seen, though I've never owned them. If you're concerned with noise. If you made your choice already what'd you go with? how they working out?
