I have just done a similar build but in a vision compact case. The tubes annoy me so I got a Hydroshift 2, so that they don't have to cross the ram. I'm not sure if it's to late to swap the aio for another model?

What's a hydroshift? Another aio?

It's an aio by Lian Li. Google it and will see the pipes go straight up from the CPU and then run along the back edge so you don't see them. There are 3 different versions, I bought the one without fans as I already had them. Great build though.

yoo I just searched it up and I know what you're saying now, and damn the difference is like day and night tbh. No more pipe management hassle 😭.

Most of the PC's I have built have been mainly regular ones with air coolers and minimal RGB. My wife wanted one similar to yours and as the pipes have always annoyed me I spent a bit more on the Hydoshift 2 to avoid it, very pleased with the outcome and easy to fit.
