Just a quick question is that fine? Nice.

Go to solution Solved by Lemtea,

I'm pretty sure you can, the dark rock pro 4 just uses wire clips that go through the fan mounting holes. TBH though I would say its not a good idea as the stock fans on the dark rock pro 4 are very good and the NZXT Aer RGB fans would be a downgrade performance wise unless you absolutely must have RGB. 

So i want to build the most silent but best performinc pc but also wanted RGB. The Dark Rock Pro 4 seems like a nice contender and the NZXT aer rgb fans look sexy ( I know they are not known for silence ) and this may seem like a dumb question but, can i replace the Dark Rock's fans with the Aer RGB fans, cuz i want to know if they fit or not.

Heatsinks don't make any noise and the system is only as quiet as the noisiest components. 

If you're not planning to use the DRP4 with the included fans, you're not benefiting from what makes it a quiet cooler. 

If you really want rgb, you might as well get a different cooler to begin with.
