**No** , any fans - including the stock fans will require you to bypass the power breakout PCB that is included in the HL15 ($800 that doesn’t support controllable fans). Any 120mm fan will fit but you’ll need to wire the fans directly to a motherboard.

To make your life easy, you can also get something [like this](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08Q367BXM?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details) to help the PWM breakout for all the fans.
