Exactly which fans in your pc are creating the noise?
If you don't know, put a paper tube near each one as sort of a stethoscope.

One of the best web sites to research quiet parts is http://www.silentpcreview.com/

Noise comes primarily from fans running at high rpm.
There are secondary issues such as tonality and noise quality.
But, if you need more quiet, plan on reducing the rpm.
You can do this with existing fans with some sort of a fan controller.
Or, if possible, replace 120mm fans with 140mm fans which push the same amount of air at lower rpm.

I happen to like noctua fans for their quality, if nothing else.
