Use for case intake. Should have high static pressure and low noise with high CFm. Thanks

Oh, and which shop in SLs to buy

You can either choose 1.

High static or High Airflow.

120mm - Usually used for high static as compared to 140mm. Airflow is slightly weaker than 140mm but you get good static pressure. If you have a HDD rack infront of the fan, it is good to have good static pressure to blow inwards the chassis. Another good use for 120mm is for Radiators/heat exchangers. Usually with that it is able to blow thru the fins of the radiators.

140mm - Usually used for higher airflow but weaker static. Meant to be used with nothing blocked infront. And usually with much quieter operation than 120mm.

I've looked at a few options. I have a 140mm intake in the front which is not obstructed and was thinking of either Silverstone or Gentle Typhoons for that. Just above it I have a HDD rack with a 120mm fan, so will need a higher static pressure fan for that - any recommendations?

Additionally, what other good replacements for my 2x120mm radiator fans for my H80i? I'm running both fans on silent mode (using Corsair Link) and want to be able to run the new fans at the same sound level but with increased performance; any fans to recommend that are better than the stock H80i fans?

There are no 140mm GT fans at all..

if your front fan has no intake restrictions, den get AF140..
