Got a friend who is going to modify my case later will see how that goes before I get another one. Time to build not looking forward to this. Its the most hi_tech build I've done with all the wires for RGB and also fitting the AIO not sure how it's done will have to look at YT

if you live near by, dont open the case and exchange it - saves modding and such :)
Easiest way it to drill holes into the acrylic - may find out airflow is fine for you

take your time with the AIO, read instructions and YT is a great source, also reviews on the product help with detailed shots

I live 2 hours away. Yes I'm going to drill holes into the sides of the acrylic but my find is going to make a template to follow so should look nice. I just don't understand if I'll be keeping all the RGB fans or not or be getting rid of 2 I look into it after I have prepared the motherboard

So does this mean I take off 2 my RGB fans on the case or will I have 5 fans I total at the front?

take two off, or- if you've got enough 30mm screws , have push pull on the AIO which is a bit over kill - or just use the RGB fans with the AIO.
personally wouldn't do that as Fractal has a high fin count, and those fans have damn good static pressure, though at full speed are loud! rysen shouldnt get it that hot though :)

Got it in just need to wire everything up. Would you apply thermal paste even though it's pre applied on the AIO or is it not needed

@orbitalwalsh just a quick question want to know I have installed the AIO right. Would the fans for the radiator be inside the case so if looking side on would be pointing right or radiator pushed up to front of case and held in place by the 2 fans pointing right so below 1 of the original case fans. Hope this makes sense either fans inside case or outside underneath original RGB fans

Like this at 6:35
fans outside

Or like this 5.30
fans inside

It depends how much space you have with your card .
Both those videos have the set up in push config - pushing air through the rad and not sucking through. Great! The fans on the kit are high static and will do the job just fine .

Video one has the case panel sandwiched between the fan and rad, video two isn't .
In your case, using the 30mm screws supplied. You would either have rad on the inside of the case and fans on the outside, screwed together and sandwich the panel.
Or you would have fan and rad inside the case. Fans would be against the inside panel with rad behind it, and a screw going from the outside pulling the rad against the fan and panel- meaning the fans are sandwiched between the rad and panel
 
It seems by default , coolmaster install the RGB fans on the outside.
This allows longer cards to be installed on the inside and allows the fans RGB to be unblocked .
This allows allows little space for air to flow into the the fans .
If your card allows it. Mount the fans and rad on the inside of the case

Will do when I sort it out getting CPU fan error for some reason not sure why only one cable from on the AIO and I've slotted it into the AIO on the motherboard. Fans were spinning on the cooler

Temps get climbing then just switched off

Edit... So changed connection from AIO to CPU header no longer get CPU fan error but temps reach 80°c and then shut off

normally deal with different brands, but i stick eibaer/silent loop AIO on the Main CPU header- set to max and set up a pump warming if their is no RPM detected - though other AIO will have pump sound issues so finding the idle speed range

i know asus boards, he AIO/PUMP header auto set speed for 100%
