Hello everyone, I checked the online manual for the Aurora R3 and it only told me how to replace the fans, not what they are.
I know if I take them apart and measure them I'd figure out the size, but atm I'd like to not take it apart just yet.

So does anyone have prior knowledge of the size and watts the stock fans of a Aurora R3 are?

Secondly is it necessary for me to get a fan controller? Alienware Command Center lets me control the PCI and Drive Bay fans by itself. (2/4 fans).
If I should still get one, which would you recommend?

I got time to look around my case, it seems the radiator fan is roughly 5 inches across and the PCI fan was about 4 inches across. So to my knowledge is that a 120mm fan and a 80mm fan?
Edit: Being this was selected as beat solution. I'd like to say a 120 fan fit in both slots. But the fan for the had I believe was a 80 with a casing around it.
