As it turns out, you can fit a pair of 120 mm Scythe slim fans onto the ASRock Challenger 5700 XT and still have it fit into the SM570. Completely silent now with better temps.
Yes, the one on the left is crooked but I don't feel like redoing the zip ties.
In my SM570 (both vented) with 3700x, Corsair H100i as intake, Zotac 1070 and two Noctua NF-P12 1700 RPM as exhaust on the bottom, I am getting no more than 75 C on CPU during a stress test and 72 C or less for the GPU. Using the AIO as intake will always result in in lower CPU temperatures...
1. you'll need the pigtail. The card width is 140mm which might even be pushing it for fitting in the case without an adapter for the power cables.
2. The IS-VC45 will work better of those two but I encourage you to look at the Id Cooling IS-60, Cooltek LP53 or Cryorig C7G for better cooling
Honestly, I hate making SATA cables so I just ended up using the stock one. There's probably ~10cm of slack that can be removed between the psu and the first of the SATA connectors (the one that goes to the AIO), the lengths between the connectors is pretty good though.
