For Skylake you're anticipating a temperature range of 8-20°C at most. It won't reach 20-30°C, which is the case with Kaby Lake. The situation will be significantly riskier and more challenging than just swapping out the AIO. It's unclear why you wouldn't want to remove it eventually; you'll likely do so over time. Most thermal pastes have a recommended lifespan, such as NT-H1 lasting around 3 years. Also, pumps usually fail after about 4-5 years for reputable brands.
