What kind of mod and why? It's a 75mm fan.

75mm? aren't they 90mm

Nope. I just measured it. The distance from the fan blade tips is 75mm. If it was a standard square frame, it'd be 80mm.

Why not get a different cooler to begin with? The original fan is pretty efficient and you're going to have worse performance with a lower rpm rgb fan.
