360 Radiator Nightmare

I spent a ton on i9-10900k CPU, MSI Carbon MBD, 5700xt GPU, Crucial P1 M2 SSD, MSI 360mm heatsink, I didn't want to spend more on a case. Don't worry about the LED effects, noise and totally cool look. I chose this case because it supports a 360mm radiator. My latest system is still working fine since I built it over 9 years ago, no issues with CM Stryker case, unfortunately it doesn't support 360mm cooler for i9. It's a nightmare fighting the 360 heatsink in the front, it falls into the space of the PSU and rests on the HDD bracket I was planning to use for the 2xHDD. I still haven't figured out the airflow, and after removing the faceplate I can't see how the airflow keeps the heatsink cool with all the obstructions. It doesn't come with instructions, I'm not sure what all the connectors are for, the website didn't provide any further information or PDFs for the missing documentation. This case will likely do well for the proverbial budget built with no hard drive and 280mm radiator or shorter or air cooler. Doesn't work very well for Power Assembly. I can't find all the details, can't figure out what goes where, and can't find support. He will be returned.
