Will a 200mm CM Megaflow fit in the front of a NZXT Phantom 530?

Curious whether I could put a CM Megaflow inside the front of my case without making any modifications. The front fan is currently the only part of my PC which does not fit with my colour scheme so if I could replace it that would be fantastic.

Yes you can! As long as it's 200mm you're good :P You can also either do 2x 120mm or 2x 140mm in the front of the case as well ^_^

I know NZXT do thier own series of LED 200MM fans, the FZ series, those should be fine

I'm not so sure, I've heard that not all 200mm have the same frame, so they don't all fit the same mounts. NZXT actually advertises their fans being true 200mm fans as opposed to 193mm, which is apparently the normal one.

My concern at the moment is that there is no standard for 200mm fans so the screw holes may not line up, hence why I'm asking.

I have a Sorta strange Oval type looking 200mm fan but I can't test to see if what JebKerman said is true or not because their isn't a 200mm slot in the 800D but Ill look more into it :P

Well assuming NZXT uses their own fans in their cases, they are advertised as true 200mm, so I'd get the FZ 200mm series in your required LED colour just to be on the safe side.

Unfortunately, for some reason I can't get the FZ series in the UK.

EDIT: At least not in the colour I want.

It's red i'm guessing, well i dunno, if you don't mind potentially forfeiting the cost of the fan, then go ahead, if it fit's, yay. if it doesn't, you could try mounting it in some other way (i mean, if it doesn't fit, it can only be smaller, so zip-ties, or even twist-ties might work).
