DO NOT put the corsair radiator and the other components together!

#

The kit you received is aluminum based. The new rad you want is copper based. If you mix aluminum parts with copper parts they will corrode and destroy the loop and components

Only the thick boy comes in a 280 though unfortunately. If you are cooling the R3 3100 that you have listed in your name then the thin 240 will be way more than enough.
