You can buy multi-packs of 120mm Molex fans for $10. 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

Generic fans go for 2$ or less, here in indo my local market has generic fans for ~1$, you should not pay over 3$ for generic fans

I don't currently have device to capture the picture, but the fan has two cables. and those are with the 4 pin male molex connector. There's no fancy things such as 3 pin rgb connector or 4 pin fan connector.

Would hazard a guess that you only have 12 V (red) and ground (black), and thus the LED connection is likely on the PCB or within the hub of the fan. Long story short, don't cut either of the cables.
