[SOLVED] Removing one heatsink because CPU COOLER AIO not fitting

[Zlain8]

Hello guys, I just want to ask if it is okay to remove one heatsink (the one with MAG in it) from the motherboard because my CPU Cooler Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280 A-RGB couldn't fit on the case , I tried putting it back on after finishing putting the cooler but I couldn't so I just let it that way (it has thermalpads under the heatsink which u can't see in the image).

Thankz in advance.

I wouldn't remove heatsinks on motherboard. They are there for a reason.

Install AIO radiator in front position instead.

Just one Question, do you guys think I can keep playing games (for like a month until I buy another cooler) or is it too dangerous for the motherboard ?

Monitor your temperatures.

Nobody here knows how demanding your gaming is or what temps you will actually realize.

Motherboards are among the least durable items in your PC and can fail at any time regardless of heat....for unknowable reasons.

Monitor your temperatures.

Proper monitoring may not be possible.
There are not necessary going to be thermal sensors on VRMs, where heatsink gets removed.
