You need airflow of static pressure fans? Need the right fan for the job.

AF (air flow) have a high cmf which means the "move" more air.

SP (static pressure) have a higher well static pressure which means they "push" air harder.

for intakes and exhausts you want to move lots of air but for hint sink/rads you want the air to be forced through it.

My AF120 led quiet editions are utterly silent at 7v while still bright, and they shift plenty of air.

Sickleflows are not great and dont hit their quoted specs.

I was looking at the sickleflows myself. They are loud. Not worth it.
