EX420 radiator 140mm?

Thread Starter 
i just order a water loop kit with a ex420 rad.(http://www.xs-pc.com/products/radiators/ex-140mm-series-radiators/ex420-triple-fan-radiator/)
I ordered it with the more expensive fans they offered which seem to have good reviews.(can't remember what they were called) Anyways i recently decided i want push and pull configuration on this rad. Its going to set outside my case so room isn't an issue. I just don't know whats a good 140mm fan. Something that moves a lot of air is welcome. Noise isn't a big deal (head phones or 7.1 surround) but if i can get something powerful that's quite that's cool to.

Bgears Blasters 140mm 1800rpm (103cfm/3.5mmHg) $8-11/ea. Inexpensive and the best static pressure of any 140mm fan under $80/ea. I can't recommend them enough!

pretty much this, though you'd have to make it $60 each, since there are some san ace fans http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=36_316_850&products_id=31238 for $60, but you could run a push/pull setup for that price
