Hello,
atm i have the corsair 500r but the side and front 2 fans kind of make a lot of noise and make my pc vibrate a bit even though it's on rubber feet. i'm planning to change them but i'm not sure if i should use the AF or SP type. and what kind of brands are the best for such kind of fans ( and if possible with white leds would be awesome as detail )

Thanks in advance

high airflow = high rpm? Not always. For instance, your case has at the side panel a 200mm low rpm fan that has better perfomance (including the noise factor ) than most high rpm 120mm fans

Thank you for your answer and yeah indeed they don't have the best designs ever xD but their revieuws are good ^^
though i see there are manny differnt kind of blades on the fan ( the thickness and how many there are on it ) is it like this the thicker and more the better or how should you decide which fan is right for you?

so something with high RPM ( which means big blades on the fan? or well thick blades*)

hmm and high ariflow means high rpm if i'm right? ( don't know anythin about fans )
i only did a little bit research if i'm honest and i readed you need other fans if they have to push trough something like the 2 on the front should push trough the hard drives or doesn't this count? and is it only for fans on radiators who need such kind of thing?
