Hi everyone. I'm looking to replace my Corsair H75's stock fans with some fans that are both quieter and move more air (I have a Thermaltake core V1 so these fans are both for the radiator and for intake.

Specifically I'm looking at these 2 fans, and I'm wondering which one would be better/more suited for radiators:

Can someone help me out?

For radiators/watercooling you should be looking at high static pressure fans instead of high CFM fans since they have to push through the rad fins. Read more in the watercooling sticky, fans section+Closed Loop Cooler section.

If you like the look of the Noctua fan you've linked, by all means get it since it has the highest static pressure at 3,94 mm H2O which is a step above what the EK Vardar fans are.

The JetFlo fans are like jet engines and they aren't meant for radiators. The EK Vardar fan btw is the right fan for your setup. How much is your budget? You can take a look at Bitffenix Spectre Pros or Noctua NF or even Noiseblocker E-loop fans.

Thanks for the quick answers! My budget is I guess 70$ for both fans (CAD), but I don't mind paying for quality.

By the bitffenix Spectre Pros, do you mean this? (https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835345049&cm_re=spectre_pro_120-_-35-345-049-_-Product)

Also my main issue with the Noctuas is probably the design, but I like this look (https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIAB984BD9975). It gives more CFM than my current fans.

At that high PWM they might make a bit more noise but they are pwm so you can manually adjust it if connected to pwm connector
