I'd guess that the sp Corsair fans would outperform both of those on a rad, at least try them out before spending more imo.

If fans have bad static pressure, doesn't that mean that it will harm the rad?

Yes, the SP120 fans have good static pressure. AP-15 and COUGAR CF-V12H fans also work well.

Cougar fans seem to have weird noises according to reviews. I don't really like scythe fans. They are a smaller company and the cable isn't braided.

They had an issue when they were mounted horizontally but I thought that only the 4pin had the issue, but if you don't feel comfortable, then just stay away. I think just because they aren't sleeved doesn't mean you shouldn't buy them. But that is just my opinion. They are great fans with really good static pressure. bgears b-Blaster 120 also have good static pressure but are pretty loud.

Well the rainbow color cables doesn't make me happy.
I'm thinking of saving the money. A few Celsius won't bother me at all.
