Default Panaflo U1A (120mm) sound

I'm planning on getting the BIX and fitting two 120mm fans on it; one blowing freash air, one sucking into the case. I've been reading that the Panaflo's are one of the most recommended case fans for it's high CFM and low DBA.

The 120mm panaflo i'm looking at is the U1A which boasts >100CFM @ 45dba. That alone makes it pretty loud but if it is hooked up to a rheo fanbus, what voltage should I expect to drop it down to when just computing (word, photoshop, coding) and how loud the dba would be? Same question when hard-core gaming.

I plan to watercool both CPU (XP 1600+ o/c to whatever it can get, maybe around 1.6ghz) and GF3Ti200 (o/c'd to Ti500 specs). Pump used will be Eheim 1250 (300GPH) in a Lian Li PC65
