I am rebuilding my Gaming PC. I have no plans to overclock and therefore see no point in liquid cooling fans. I am going to go with either the current Intel i5 or i7 Kaby Lake CPU and its LGA 1151 socket. On my current build which I have had for the last three years, I have used a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo CPU fan. This fan has served me well. I am planning to replace this fan on my next build. My only requirements for the CPU fan are that it is reliable, capable of handling the heat and temperatures generated from gaming, and is as quiet as possible. Would I be better off getting another 212 Evo or is there another CPU fan that you would recommend? Thanks in advance.

well you can always replace the fan on the EVO 212 with whatever other 120mm fan you want or you can buy a whole new heatsink/fan combo if you want as well.
If you are really obsessed with the fan being as quiet as possible then look to Noctua.
