I think it might mount ok (it appears to be an Asetek clone):

and pretty sure 620 and 920 mount the same way. This user got after-market Asetek clone to attach ok.

just watch your case to radiator mount space. Might have to mod the case a bit to get it to attach in that space.

I think your only problem will be controlling it. If you want to convert back to MIO-Board control, you can reference this:

Pretty sure the Corsair H50 is the match to ours (but you still need to re-wire). While newer ones "look" the same, they are likely electrically different (the digital controller part). Or, just use the Antec way (like it was installed into a more normal computer) but then it won't appear in Command Center with others.

All that said, it would be easier to just buy a new one from Dell spare parts. Note that the one for the Aurora is different than the Area-51 part. I would NOT buy used.

 

EDITED (added more details).
