Do I have to connect the fans to the NZXT fan hub with the NZXT Kraken X63?  I want to connect the fans that are on the radiator into the motherboard fan headers (chassis1 fan header and chassis2 fan header) instead of the NZXT fan hub because the NZXT Cam software that controls the fans' speed is not that good because it randomly ramps up and down.

If they use a standard fan header then stick them right onto the motherboard

Also, I forgot to mention that I will be replacing the standard NZXT Kraken X63 fans with be quiet! silent wings 3 140mm pwm fans.  Will that be fine?

Sticking them in the motherboard and setting your own temperature steps is better.

Yep, those are fantastic fans- I've got 5 in my system.
