H100i problems

Hi,

So I bought a H100i a couple of days ago and
Noticed that it wouldn't fit in my Corsair 300r as
My motherboard heat sinks (z77x-ud5h) where in
The way.

Is there any advice you can give me on getting this
Fitted so that I don't have to return it as I have wanted
This cooler for quite some time.

Thanks.

Do you have 2 sets of fans on the rad? ie are you running in push and pull? If you are, just use 1 set of fans and try it that way.

If not then, I can't see how you would fit it in without any modding involved. It's either mod or go for a single 120mm AIO cooler if that's what you prefer.

Well on my 300r there is only 1 spot where I can put it which is at the top. I have only the fans which came with the cooler so can only have a push or pull system.

Some links online state that I can put the cooler outside of the case however the piping and cpu heatsink won't reach the CPU.

everything would have been fine if it wasn't for the god dam mobo heatsinks
