My case has a small filter in the front, designed for use with a front-mounted 120mm fan. Is there any material one can get at a hardware store or elsewhere that offers decent airflow and quiet operation due to minimal impedance?

That's the default fan I was planning on using, but after plugging it into the PSU, it seems that it doesn't push very much air around. I'm worried that if I use too tight a weave on a filter (or a filter at all) that airflow will be reduced to a negligible benefit.

I'm also considering putting in a larger than 120mm fan in the front part of the case. As such, a custom filter would need to be devised. What car, air or other cooling pads/materials work well for low-sound/high-airflow applications? Thanks as always guys!
