Needs some work

My setup is kind of a hot mess ngl😅 I have quite a small room and lack storage and space in general so yeah 😆 Really wanna change it up but I don't know how 🤔 Was originally aiming for a black/white/purple situation and it just turned into chaos from there hahaha

Tubes up or down?

Sorry, reposting because I forgot to edit the image before I shared.

But basically my Kraken Elite 280 doesn't fit this way around in the H510 Elite because of that metal cutaway bit, and I was wondering if I can flip it around the other way. Really really sorry for the repost and to those who already replied trying to help, having one of those days😭

Advice on AIO fitting

So, I'm not the brightest spark when it comes to PCs. I bought a custom prebuild (not from NZXT) for a reason. Anyway.

I want to upgrade from the AMD stock cooler to a nice shiny Kraken 240 plus in my H510 Elite case.

Now, I'm aware I can't mount the radiator to the top of the PC without modding it, that's fine.

I want to mount it to the front, but what I also wanted to do was remove the two RGB fans from the front and use them to replace the two non-RGB stock fans that were already in the case at the top and back.

But upon opening everything up and having a look, I'm starting to wonder if that's even possible? Because whenever I look at other builds in the same case, people seem to put the radiator straight onto the back of the two front fans that were already there. Or am I (quite likely) just being painfully stupid here? Because if I do that then the new fans that came in the box go unused? Or am I supposed to attempt to put the new fans on the other (inner case?) side of the old ones and use the radiator screws to hold the whole lot together?

Please correct me if I'm wrong because this is already going quite poorly and it's putting me off of wanting to actually fit the damn thing altogether because I'm so damn confused💀 I'm also now wondering whether I should've bought the 280 instead of the 240😭

Instructor wants me to move test forward despite bombing my mock test - advice pls

Basically what the title says. I've been doing lessons since March, passed theory test first try, and have a test booked for the end of September. But my instructor thinks I should try to swap with someone so I can do it sooner. Despite that, I have only just done my first mock test last week and it was abysmal to say the least. Basically failed within the first five minutes and got so many dangerous faults it's actually concerning. Prior to that, my driving had been pretty darn good if I do say so myself, but apparently doing a mock test caused me to throw my brain out of the window. So I'm now wondering whether I should try to bring my test forward or leave it where it is. I can't really afford to keep doing lessons, I have three or four left with her before I have to pay for more, and driving with my family members is out of the question, they'd both stress me out too much, that I know for a fact.

So, TLDR; what the fuck do I do?

PSU requirements/compatibility

(Hoping I've added the right flair)

So I have a prebuilt PC, it's great, picked out the parts myself but had it built by PCSpecialist a few years ago.

Anyway, I'm wanting to add an AIO to it because it gets pretty dang warm in there with the stock cooler. But I'm worried about whether my PSU is big enough for the added component.

Specs are in the photo and the AIO I'm adding is an NZXT Kraken Plus 240.

TLDR; will my 550W PSU be enough or do I need a bigger one?
