120mm - they have better airflow and make less noise.

U want to go 120mm or bigger. Yes bigger, ive seen 200mm fans. One like that on ur side panel will be enough.

my Aerocool has a 250mm. its a little too intense and looks a bit messy to me. im going to be moving it to the top of the case as an extraction fan rather. that way it'll be out of sight and i can run it at much lower speeds reducing its "woooooosh"!
