Question Lian Li Lancool 215: Build incompatibility?

[Shiro90]

So, the Lancool 215 case I bought early this month finally arrived, along with the other components. They are the following:

Motherboard: Asus Prime Z790-A WIFI
CPU: Intel i9-14900K
GPU: Sapphire NITRO+ AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX Vapor-X 24GB
Watercooler: DeepCool LT720 ARGB 360mm

However, the GPU is larger than I expected, and from the looks of it, it doesn't fit in the case, unless if I'm missing something. Or maybe it'd fit without the watercooler?
I'd like some guidance, please. Because I'd like to keep this setup if possible instead of having to buy a different, bigger case.

370 - (25 + 27) - 320 = -2
The info on part dimensions was readily available...

Or maybe it'd fit without the watercooler?

Yes.

So I was stupid after all. It's the first PC I'm building so still too inexperienced with this stuff...
I guess I can still have an air cooler alongside the GPU though, right? In that case I'd be willing to sacrifice the AIO.
I'm willing to go with one from Noctua since it's a brand with high reputation. I also already bought some fans from them to add to the case.

This is their compatibility list for my case: https://ncc.noctua.at/cases/model/LANCOOL-215-4155

NH-D15 G2 and NH-D15 are too large. But NH-D15S (their third best) is compatible. My question is: would it still fit even with this large GPU at the same time? Just want a confirmation before I buy it and end up without enough space again.

Yes. Compatibility is the focus behind the S model; it fits around more cases/motherboards/ram than the other 2.

That said, Thermalright has their Phantom Spirit, Peerless Assassin, and Silver Soul 135 at more affordable prices.

Are those better, though?

Better price to performance. Can't really comment on the quality of the fans.
The last ones I used were the IB-E Extreme and TS140 Power, but those are pretty old.
