I know you guys aren't fans of mesh filters but I've had some good xp with this Lian Li 120mm Filter Mount.
This coupled with Serpentarious' comment about silicon lub should work wonders... and if that isn't enough you could always stick on some DustX on top of this mount which would be easy to replace and collect the finer dust that the mesh filter doesn't.
It sounds like my setup is similar to NaeKuh (as far as loudness goes) - I'm using 120mm a Delta 210 CFM fan. Apparently the fan calls for 30 watts and it let some smoke out of my R2G when I hooked it up to the mobo PWM connector. The board still ran and OC'ed to 4.2Ghz but the VTT was no longer stable (fluctuated +/- .05v). I ended up buying an Akasa PWM Splitter so I could pull power from the PSU and still use the PWM on my new R3G. Sourcing the power direct from the psu made my vcore and vtt more stable than with my previous fans
