I have the SP120 Quiet edition which I use on my Cooler Master Seidon 120m. The SP120 replaced the stock CM fan which was too noisy after my fan controller program stopped working with my computer.

I had to get the quiet because the Asus fan controller program stopped working on my computer and I cannot get it running again, so mine runs at high RPM all the time, so the Quiet was a must for me.
