    Cheap will be noisy and won't last long. Not cheap but probably best: Noctua, after that any of the good makes.
    Look on Scan and read the reviews - might give some useful info.

    Is it a computer that runs in the cupboard? If so, cheap and nasty will work as you won't be able to hear them!

    Good choice, for the price the P-series are great. Quiet and move some serious air.
