The 6 in size is the usual fit for a 4x4 or 5x5 grow tent with a carbon filter, and for venting a large bathroom or a laundry room. Most of these are EC fans rated 350 to 470 CFM, and the rated power and noise vary more than the airflow does, so compare airflow per watt and the noise rating as well as price.
