Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO replacing fans .

Solution
I would leave the stock fan. Cooler masters LED fans are at best a little worse than the stock fan or a piece of trash. The stock fan is pretty good and adding a second fan only lowers the temps a degree or two. If you just want to add one of those fans and you already have it, it won't hurt anything but it won't help much either. If you truly want to upgrade you'd need to get something like a noctua f12, phanteks 120mm (which is hard to find) or gentle typhoon. They still will probably not be much cooler (maybe a couple degrees) just give the same performance with less noise
