Solved New build - unable to install fans due to clearance. Cables in the way - needing advice

with the AiO acting as exhaust fans, you are pushing already heated air over the radiator vanes.
I'd change it to act as an intake system, getting clean, cool air from the get-go.

and I don't like the fans on the bottom, how their grill holes are not very substantial.
almost as if that bottom plate wasn't really meant for fans, more likely a PSU?
where does the PSU go in that case?
I've done a lot of research and most recommend this approach to get optimal cooling. Check out this page this is the case it'll give you some insight and close up images of where things go. The PSU goes in the back https://lian-li.com/product/pc-o11-dynamic/
 
Finished product attached if anyone was curious how it came out. I also attached stats from HW monitor on idle / very light load. Edge with 20 windows or so open and a couple of programs (Battlenet client, Foobar, and Noisegator). Everything looks pretty good to me but if anyone has some input I'm all ears. I noticed my CPU was running hot (60 degrees or so) but I researched and the AMD Ryzen 9 5900x actually runs hot and is normal at these temperatures. I still need to track the temperatures on heavy load when gaming to see what they look like and will update again when I have that. Otherwise I'm very happy with the way things turned out! My cat loved sitting on top of my PC since it got so **** hot (he loves anything hot) but I probably won't let him sit on this one lol.

For some reason it only let me attach one thing... Here's a pic of the finished build. The Hardware Monitor stats are in my previous message
