So, over the last couple of days I've run into a few propblems. I decided that I would try to liquid cool my Gpu(gtx 980ti) using the Corsair H90 all in one liquid cooler with the NZXT kraken g12 bracket. This was fine until I realised that the tubing on the cpu cooler is not long enough to reach the intended placement on the front of the case-with no other place available.

So my question is, what do I do? I don't think I can return the item because I slightly damaged the radiator however, if there is a way of replacing the tubing of the cpu cooler to longer ones draining the system, thus replacing the coolant, then I will happily do it. Also if anyone knows if I'm available to send this item back to amazon-after being 23 days of purchase, as the item was in its box for a long time-then that would be a great help as well.

Any feedback is much appreciated and would greatly help, thank you.

These are closed loop coolers and you'd have to do quite a bit of damage to get them to be expandable. I believe the only (affordable) AIO coolers that allows expandability is Fractal Design's Celsius series, and their pump's flow ratings are so low that it's not even recommended to do it.

Granted Corsair AIOs don't have that same problem, it's probably more worth it just to buy a water cooling kit from EK that includes a CPU and GPU block.
