Do they make a case fan that has extra holes in it so you could add a larger fan to the case for example taking a 140 mm case fan but make it with extra holes to fit into a 120 mm area or vice versa, that way you could add a larger fan to your smaller AIO and mount it on the back or top of your pc case?
 
I know there used to be "modules" (duct converters) for this at one time.
 
There are a few 140mm fans out there that mount on 120mm hole patterns. Cryorig makes a nice one. They tend to be slim designs though, so not high static pressure.
 
140mm fans with 120 mm fan mounts (105mm spacing) are out there. Thermalright TY-14x series, Noctua NF-A15, Silverstone HE01, Cryorig XF140 & XT140, and a few others.

Problem is most mounting applications for 120mm fans do not have room needed for 140mm fan to fit into and use the 120mm fan (105mm spaced) mount.
 
I want to do the exact opposite i want to put a 140 mm on a 120 mm rear case fan it will fit in the rear just want a 140 not a 120.
 
Some cases have 140mm and 120mm mounting holes in the same spot.

I used to use a lot of Thermalright TY-140 and TY-143 fans before we had fans as good at reasonable prices. These fans are rounded design with 120mm fan mounting holes (105mm spacing).

I rarely found a case vent with 120mm and 140mm mounting holes that centered 140mm fan with 120mm fan mounting holes .. especially venting for 2x or 3x fans. to resolve the problems I had to cut rounded edges off of fans and mounted them on an adapter plate with 105mm (120mm fan) holes and 124.5mm (140mm fan) holes.
