I want an all in one water cooler for my pc, but am not sure if this fits.

This is my computer: PowerSpec G228 Gaming PC; Intel Core i5 10400F 2.9GHz Processor; Nvidia GTX 1660 Super 6Gb GDDR6; 16 GB DDR4-2666Ram; 500GB - Micro Center

This is the AIO water cooler that I want to get: NZXT Kraken X53 240 mm Water Cooling Kit - Micro Center

My computer has an LGA 1200 socket which I know will work, but I am more wondering whether the radiator will fit in my computer case. I'm also concerned about it possibly hitting my ram or a heatsink on the motherboard. Can someone help?

Thanks!

    I am not sure about the NZXT kit, but I installed a Lian Li Galahad 240 AIO in this same chassis with the ASUS Z690 Prime board. It was a tight fit in the top of the chassis, but it worked. It blocked the RAM release levers but was above the modules themselves, so swapping RAM will require removing the radiator. There is always the option of mounting it in the front of the chassis if it doesn't fit up top.
