I have a Corsair 600Q case, and I'm facing a scenario where adding more than one 480 radiator would require me to replace case fans. Is this a concern? Will the fans on the radiators compensate for the missing ones? I know rad fans provide static pressure, but I plan to use many of them for these radiators. I can adjust as needed.

I don't plan to overclock (just aiming for quiet operation).

As long as it uses air, the difference between case and rad fans is minimal. Rad fans and other high-pressure fans create greater pressure at the front by directing more air through a narrower beam without losing intake.
