So, are you saying this and this are actually 110mm fans?
Yes. The fans in the CNPS7700 coolers can be replaced with regular 120mm fans (with frame removed). No reason to believe that those replacement fans are 120mm in diameter.

Which begs the question...

SUP with these Korean fans?

I cannot remember the last time I had to replace a fan -- but it was probably well into the last century. Forget the misleading numbers. Are Zalman fans really that undependable?

I'm no expert but I cant remember anyone even asking how to replace one so I'd say they are probably pretty dependable. if they werent I would think we'd see alot of people asking how to do it.
