Welp, I've been trying this for five hours and still haven't found a solution. My new cooler fits in my case - only problem is that the nails/pins that were in the package are too small, and therefore, everytime I install them on my case, they fall through the hole and BAM, carnage in my case.I'm starting to really lose hope. The sellers told me that it was compatible with my case.

I think i know why you are having issues.
Corsair use a non standard screw hole size on most of their cases, they use rubber anti vibration washers with a bigger headed screw to install fans.

What you will need to do is install the fans onto the rad first, using the short screws included with the cooler, you will then need to install them little rubber anti vibration washers in the fan screws holes in the case and use the corsair fan screws.
