Hello,
I am stuck choosing between the two budget fans and I need to pick one in 1-2 hours so I can pick it up before shop closes.
Here are the links for the two fans. These are in AUSTRALIAN prices.
CoolerMaster:
http://www.umart.com.au/umart1/pro/Products-details.phtml?id=10&id2=227&bid=9&sid=196721
BitFenix:
http://www.umart.com.au/umart1/pro/Products-details.phtml?id=10&id2=227&bid=9&sid=128231
Both are very budget friendly fans. My case never really have any cooling problems but it has a lot of empty 120mm Fan spots begging to be filled. I am leaning towards the BitFenix because of its LED but I heard it moves very little air, as much I am only buying for cosmetic purposes I still want to make sure my money is well spent.
On the otherhand, the BitFenix moves little air but it actually cools very good.. I am not really sure if that is true. One person made a comprehensive review and testing on this.

CFM wise. The BitFenix does 43.5 at 1000RPM while CoolerMaster has CFM of 44.73 at 1200RPM. I am not sure if that is a minor or major difference.
I would pick a better fan than these two but my local shop does not have the ones I like at stock and also I am on a budget.
EDIT: I heard that the CoolerMaster is also noisy.
I am stuck. Please advice.
Thanks!
