This case is going to cause you signifcant issues it seems as per pcpartpicker:

 

• Corsair H80i v2 70.7 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler and Lian-Li PC-A55B (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case are not compatible.
• The MSI GeForce GTX 1060 6GB GAMING X Video Card length of 277mm exceeds the Lian-Li PC-A55B (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case maximum of 310mm.
• The SeaSonic 520W 80+ Bronze Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply length of 160mm exceeds Lian-Li PC-A55B (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case maximum of 150mm.

With the exception of point 2, it sounds like an error or something.

PC part picker has the dimensions wrong for psu

" PSU length: 160mm  " from lian li web.

The GPU will fit in length it's 277mm to the max of 310mm of the case

The only issue is the cpu cooler has no spot from I can't tell if there is 120mm fan spots.

Well then, all that needs to be done now is to switch to a air cooler or a water cooler with a smaller rad.

Another thing is I would recommend higher cfm or more fans if possible to keep the case temp down and better performance.

Go look for a more known case with more cooling options.

My recommondation for around that price point would be a NZXT H440.

But, why get a new case when I already have a good working one ?

This is your best recommended computer build.

 

Many components in your computer build were NOT compatible with the computer case, therefore, I had to make a number of changes.

Ignoring the cooler, the other issues are actually false. There is mistake from pcpartpicker, check the posts above.

 

Anyway, about the cooler. I recommend that you consider air coolers as well since they have decent price per performance and other advantages:

In Tiny Tom's video, the Noctua CPU coolers seem to always rank at the top in many of the various fan sizes. 

 

Aside from the pricing aspect, I always recommend Noctua coolers for their quietness and reliability. 

 

As far as the rest of the components not being compatible, I have to rely on PCPartPicker only because I do not have the resources or the money to check every single component against whatever computer case it is out there. 

 

While PCPartPicker is not perfect, but it's a good guideline to follow compatibility issues.

True, but you gotta keep an eye out for stupid things this:

• The MSI GeForce GTX 1060 6GB GAMING X Video Card length of 277mm exceeds the Lian-Li PC-A55B (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case maximum of 310mm

You have to carefully read how the wording is written. 

 

Computer case manufacturers do not have a standardized method for providing measurements for computer builders. 

 

Computer cases vary so much between one brand to another that it's impossible to verify any of the information until you actually try to do the build yourself.

 

That's the bottom line.
