You have a rockitcool frame on your 9700K and a new H150i Elite LCD XT cooler. The installation instructions suggest using Corsairs standoffs, but they don’t fit low enough. You’re having trouble making contact without using your PC. Consider adjusting the standoff height or checking if a different mounting solution works better for your setup.

They likely have Corsair components that fit into the CPU rear bracket and then have screw tops. You'll need to adjust your approach accordingly. Depending on the Intel 9th Gen screws, AIO parts often come with two different lengths, so use the shorter ones.

Yes, use screws instead of standoffs for a more secure fit.

Be mindful, or you risk breaking the chip and releasing the fumes... You must have the right gap height, or wait until you can install proper ones.
