Is there a liquid cooling kit where I won't have to remove my MOBO from the case to install it? I know you don't with x99 boards but I have a z97 board. 

System: i7 4790K, Hyper 212 EVO, 16 GB Crucial Ballistix, GTX 1070 Super clocked, MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition, Corsair RM 750, Corsair 750D (with 2 additional 140mm NZXT fans up top for exhaust.)

Pretty sure if you have a large enough cut out on the back of the motherboard tray you can install most coolers from there (Turn off and unplug your PC)

I have the 750D if you would happen to know. I mostly am just too lazy to remove the board from the case as it was pretty difficult to line it up with the IO shield. Even now it's a tad off, I can still plug in and unplug things but it's slightly off :/. And if you need to know the board I have it's the MSI Z97 SLI krait edition

If you are looking at a closed loop (Like a x61 kraken or h100i gtx) you should be alright

Have you done liquid cooling? I was told that corsair offers protection on your whole system if you install one of their coolers, but I'm unsure if other companies do which is why I feel comfortable with corsair. My system will be moved at least once in the near future (by car) and I'm positive it'll be fine I just like to know all the in's and out's of taking care of a water cooled system before committing to it.
