Return the AiO for a refund and grab a cheaper but equally performing air cooler? to me Dark Rock Pro 4 has made all other coolers obsolete, amazing performance, low noise and great aesthetics.

Dark Rock Pro 4 |~| MOBO: Gigabyte Z490UD ATX|~| RAM: 16gb DDR4 3333mhzCL16 G.Skill Trident Z |~| GPU: RX 6900XT Sapphire Nitro+ |~| PSU: Corsair TX650M 80Plus Gold |~| Boot:  SSD WD Green M.2 2280 240GB |~| Storage: 1x3TB HDD 7200rpm Seagate Barracuda + SanDisk Ultra 3D 1TB |~| Case: Fractal Design Meshify C Mini |~| Display: Toshiba UL7A 4K/60hz |~| OS: Windows 10 Pro.

Just set the radiator in the front with the ML140's pushing air through the radiator. The front only allows for either 3x120mm fans or 2x140mm.

Not possible. The 280 rad only has holes for 140mm fans. You might as well take @Princess Cadence's advise if you want to use those fans.

Some people i have seen they replaced the front 120mm fans infront of the case with 140mm ones and they mounted the radiator behind those fans.

That's what I said earlier. You just can't use the 120mm in the front along with the two 140mm.

Should work, but there is only room for two 140mm.
