The larger blade with a slower rpm should be quieter, The buzz comes from the high rpms. Check radio shack or randolph and jone electronics store on crossland ave.

Here is a link to 17 fans tested for noise and effectiveness:

I think you want the Nexus brand. The larger 120mm fans are quieter than the 80mm fans.
