Aurora R14, liquid cooling upgrade
Alienware Aurora Ryzen Edition R14
Hey everyone, I'm a newer owner of a Aurora R14 Ryzen. I've looked at a few posts about putting a 240 AIO inside of the Aurora R13 for the Intel variants. I was curious if anyone has upgraded their Aurora R14 Ryzen with an aftermarket cooler? I saw a post with a 240 Deepcool installed within the Aurora R13. Would this work on the Aurora R14?
Can the Alienware motherboard with the Ryzen 5900 setup accept a cooler with LGA 1700? It doesn't look like the typical AM4 socket setup would work. Does anybody have a link to something that could help?

The DeepCool I installed on the R13 did come with AMD brackets as well. You would need to check the specs on their website to see if your CPU is supported.
If it is not, I am fairly confident they will have an AIO that would be supported.

I am the user that installed the DeepCool LS-520. If you are going with this particular AIO, you would ONLY use the standoffs that come with it, and I separately purchased four M3 screws (20mm length) and four washers to accommodate them, and everything else will work perfectly.
