Default Another Fan Thread

I have been reading around here about electric fans and sounds like I am better off with my mechanical fan to keep my engine cool. My question is when I sit at a light for a bit with the A/C (average temps here in 100 or more) the engine temp climbs a bit more than I would like. Are there better fans out there that I can swap with my current stock one that will connect to the water pump? I would like to keep my water pump/fan setup just want a better fan.

Thanks

Where can I get that?

Is that an electric fan? Does that work really well?
