I want to upgared my MSI B450 Tomahawk Max Mobo but i dont know which is good value on money and quality. Also i want to upgrade AMD Cpu stock cooler to NZXT Kraken Z53 (240mm), but i dont know if its gonna fit on my Fractal D. Meshify C Case.

Yes you can fit a 240mm AIO on the top of your case, no need to replace that.

 

I have also found you an upgrade for your Motherboard, It's still a MSI Tomahawk but the x570 version and you should not have to update the BIOS because it's also a MAX board. Link is below....
