On paper, Akasa AK-920 Evo120 will be better.

Akasa AK-920 Evo120 Airflow=67.5 CFM (114.4 m³/h) , Fan size=120mm, Noise level=15.0 - 29.8 dB(A)

Hi,

Thanks fo reply :) 
Hmm... Akasa looks better on paper but I will probably go for Scythe SHURIKEN REV.B (SCSK-1100) just because of the size - not sure if the akasa AK-920 Evo120 gonna fit in my case - I want to put the cooler in case that got dimmensions like this :
(H) 425mm, (W)185mm, (D) 485mm.
When it comes to efficiency I think it should be fine.
Do you think Scythe SHURIKEN REV.B (SCSK-1100) is good when it comes to silence ?
It got 100mm fan ( which is smaller ) but looks also silent on paper.

Thank you again :)

For the120mm size cooler, it can't fit into some of cases and the low profile one will be your best choice. I can't find the review on the SCSK-1100 but I found one for the SCSK-1000, and they ( SCSK-1100 and SCSK-1000 ) are exactly same. From the review you can the temp will be difference between the intel and the AMD system. http://www.frostytech.com/articleview.cfm?articleid=224...
So it depends on what cpu you had.
