Currently I have a h100 with a gigabyte x79 ud5 on a corsair 650d
planning on replacing the h100 stock fans but im unsure if i should get a fan controller?
 
Depends on what you get for fans.

If you are getting something like Scythe GT's or Noctua's, probably not. If you are getting something like Scythe Kaze or Vantec Tornado, very much so :D
 
Generally I only use fan controllers if the power required, or number of fans is higher than the motherboard has plugs for. :D (unless you want to control speed and don't have a voltage fan controlled motherboard, then get a controller)
 
Get a fan controller if the fan spins too fast. For 500rpm fans you dont need a controller though.
