6 fans might give the best performance, but unless they're very low cfm fans, you'll have to deal with a tornado-sounding cooling system. Some people don't mind, so...
But I agree that a 120 radiator on its own will be pretty crap.
Also, as previously mentioned, there are radiators designed for high cfm fans, and other radiators designed for low cfm.
Whats not been mentioned yet is single, and double pass radiators, or the cross section of those radiator tubes. Can't remember much about these already, but a short google will guide you more about your choices than a "I think this radiator is good" reply.
