Hey,
i have an intel core i5 8600k at 4.5ghz and i wish to switch from my cpu air cooler to a liquid one.Im wondering if this cpu cooler fit with my case and motherboard.

Motherboard:https://www.amazon.co.uk/ASUS-Intel-Socket-Chipset-Motherboard/dp/B0764LKRCT/ref=sr_1_3?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1542217943&sr=1-3&keywords=z370a
Cpu Cooler:https://www.amazon.co.uk/Corsair-CW-9060024-WW-Performance-Liquid-Cooler/dp/B019954Y2Q/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1542217872&sr=1-1&keywords=corsair+h80i+v2
Case:https://www.amazon.co.uk/BitFenix-BFX-NTG-100-KKWSK-RP-bfx-ntg-100-kkwsk-rp-PC-Casing/dp/B074QRDXT6/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1542217855&sr=8-3&keywords=nova+tg

also will i have to re-apply thermal paste to the cpu even tho the cooler already has it applied.
thanks.

Yes, it will fit the motherboard and the case.

You need to clean the CPU of the old paste. You can use the paste that is pre-applied to the new cooler.

Yes, the NovaTG will support 120mm's in the front, or rear.

For the front though, you'd probably have to remove the drive cages, which isn't particularly easy in that case.

The front would even support a 240mm AIO if the cages were removed.


At 50quid though + the hassle, you could just opt for another case.
The Corsair SPEC-04 is also Red/Black with TG.... but with better native cooling support.
