In a way the non LED ones are better with less noise :) so go forward and buy them no worries .

non LED - 1200RPM ~45CFM
LED ( Rs. 500 ) - 2K RPM - 90CFM ( check specs before rdering though )

I'm using 6x 120mm 2K RPM LED fans and there's no noise ;-)

The max speed will be ~1550rpm at max. I have 2 of those fans which doesn;t rotate in their rated speed (i.e. 1600rpm)

As far as I can remember, it is a 1200rpm fan.
Using 2K RPM fan as exhaust will create negative air pressure inside the cabinet, which will create no problem at all. But if you want positive air pressure, just change the position of those two fans.

@d6bmg Okay but positive is better na??

Yes. Positive air pressue is better. It creates better airflow than negetive air-pressure.

@sharang.d: Temperature difference isn't an issue.

at-least no need for me, I always let the fans run at their highest possible RPM and modern mobos have intelligent fan control which if enabled can rotate the fans at 1k, 1.5k RPM based on temp even if it's not a PWM fan - the 3 pin fan connector ( connected to mobo ) is enough.
