Comparing between these two fans, which one would you suggest I buy as intakes for the front of my case? I will be buying 2 for front intake.

Noctua NF-A14 PWM: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/noctua-case-fan-nfa14pwm

or

Phanteks PH-F140SP: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/phanteks-case-fan-phf140spbk

Which of these two fans have more static pressure in order to move more air?

The case I will be using is the Phanteks Enthoo Luxe, I’m going to be connecting these fans to the provided fan hub in the case. These Phanteks fans are actually the same fans that come with the case for the rear exhaust and top exhaust which I will leave them there and be using. I heard the Noctuas will be voltage controlled, I’m not sure what this means, if somebody can clarify this.

Thanks in advance!

I have the fans that come in the phanteks case and the fans that come on the D15. The D15 fans are quieter at the same rpm, plain and simple. They move a crap ton of air too.

The build quality of the Noctua fans is simply amazing. It just feels right. I am big fan of both but If I had to pick one or the other without considering cost, it would be the noctua.

Updated the links

It would be OK if I have this Noctua connected to the fan hub along with the other Phanteks fans right? This Noctua is a 4 pin connector where as the Phanteks that are preinstalled are 3 pins. No issues having 4 pins and 3 pins on one fan hub?
Also by just comparing these two, which would perform better/ is quieter?
