heck yeah go ahead 

the only thing to look out for is if the cooler fits in your case because it's quite tall

i've got a dark rock pro 3 and it doesn't fit in many cases(i learn't it the hard way)

The PH-TC14PE and NH-D15 are similarly sized and both fit and perform a bit better than the DRP4. That being said, the DRP4 is the quietest of the 3.
