Hello so 2 years ago I purchased a Corsair H100 240mm AIO and replaced the two fans that come included with low-profile noctua fans as originally the ram cleaning wasnt enough to fit but it fit with my ASUS B450-M mini ATX board in my Corsair iCUE 465X as the top space just wasn't that much. I have now upgraded to an MSI B550 Gaming PLUS and I am back to this clearance issue except now the fans wont fit AT ALL so now I don't know what to do. Is there any AIO replacement I can get. I try to avoid air cooling my CPU so any AIO suggestions would be great (Corsair preferred) or a solution for this would be great. Image below to show the clearing.

I am curious as to why you want to avoid AirCooling? Are you running a very hot CPU?

Some cases have the optione to move the radiator out further to make room for the fans.
