I am in the midst of building a PC and i just wanted to know if i had enough clearance for water cooling? I will be the using the NZXT H440 case and the motherboard is gonna be the the Gigabyte GA-Z170x-Gaming 7. For now in the beginning i will be using the Hyper 212 Evo but i do plan on upgrading to a nzxt kraken x61 or H100i i just wanted to know if i had enough clearance for the radiator or if i had to take of the i/o cover or use slim radiator fan(oh and i know my case is long enough to support but im just a little concerned with the i/o cover height the gaming 7 has and want to see if slimmer fans are needed or if i have enough space).

You will be fine with water cooling with those. Just put the fittings on the front side of the case as opposed to near the rear IO shield.
