New Domain controller, DNS client settings before FSMO transfer

$

I recently promoted a new domain controller.  It is the fourth domain controller and third in the site.  I plan to decommission the other two domain controllers in the site leaving just the new one.   Right now the new domain controller points its tcp\ip client to the other other domain controller\DNS servers as primary and itself at the bottom.  The other domain controllers point to themselves as primary and the newest domain controller on the bottom of the list.  Clients on the network use the original domain controllers as DNS from DHCP first and then the new domain controller DNS.  Is it okay to transfer all the FSMO roles to the new domain controller or should I make all the DNS clients point to it first?
