Cryorig R1 Ultimate Fans Replacement

Was wondering if the fans on the Cryorig R1 Ultimate can be replaced by different fans of my preference, say something like the HD140 RGBs from Corsair, or are the mounting mechanisms designed for its stock fans only?

HD140's won't work but HD120's will. The clips work with standard 120mm fan mounting holes. Phanteks might have 140mm clips available at request.

Thats an odd design from Cryorig, so the mounting holes for the 140mm fans that come with it are for 120mm? And I'll take a look at the Phanteks solution as well, thanks!

Yes, 140mm fans with 120mm mounting holes are pretty standard. It allows larger fans to fit in tighter spaces for better compatibility and it's rare to find square frame 140mm's on a heatsink.

You got a link? Can't seem to find the clips

You have to contact Cryorig. If they have them, they should be free with proof of purchase.

I managed to attach the HD140s onto the R1 Ultimate with the provided brackets, it was slightly tedious, but, I got them on there snug
