I purchased some new memory, but I already have 2 sticks installed, which I did with the motherboard out of the case when I first got it. It's a lot of work to take the motherboard out and take the H100i off, so I was wondering if it was safe to install RAM with the motherboard installed? I just know RAM requires some force to install them into the slots, and didn't know if that was safe for the motherboard on the standoffs.

Yes it is safe to do this. In some cases it can be better depending on how well the case was made. But you don't need to take anything off or remove it to install some ram, it's going to be just fine to do it while everything is installed inside the case. Hope that helped.
