I`ve had years of experience when it comes to so-called quiet yet high CFM fans.
Cut a long story short anything by noctua ( you get what u pay for) and cougar. The latter are even more expensive and hard to get hold of. I paid 22 odd pounds each for 4 on amazon.
I must admit 140mm fans are so much quieter and obviously have a much higher air shifting capacity than their 120mm counterparts.
Always opt for 140MM + for exhaust fans on top of chassis otherwise ive learnt they make a racket with 120mm ones.
In the end a decent fan doesnt come cheap yet its worth have that quiet hum over than cranky drone.
well as much as i remember i had sen 140mm fans with 120mm fitings maybe u knew some? coz i knew that 140m do make less noise by produsing biger air flow and well for my intake i would really be able to use 140's with 120' mount (whole's are for 120 but there is some space for 140 to fit
