I just ordered this cooler for my 3930k, but I have a cooler master HAF 922 case. How hard will it be to mod the case to fit the 280mm radiator in the top of the case?

If you look at the top of Haf 922, there isn't even room for 2 x 140mm fans, let alone 2 x140mm fan & 280mm radiator. You'd have to mod it a lot because it is not like there is no screw holes, there is no mesh on the top.  You'd have to cut out an entire section so that you're radiator isn't against a solid piece.

That's the top of the Haf 922.  The Haf 932 has mesh made for like 2 x 120mm, and "maybe", just maybe could fit a H110 with small modifications.  But there is just no way for Haf 922 without extensive modding.

It came with two 120mm fans on the top, and there is mesh at the top as well.
