If your R10 came air cooled (fan on top of the cpu) then you may not have the heat sinks shown by others above. The vrm components next to the cpu will overheat if you switch to the aio water cooler, (no longer getting some air flow spill from the cpu fan), so you need to get some heat sinks for those areas.
there are only a few fans that can be used to make the case quieter and not throw errors when you start the machine up. Personally I’d opt for the Noctua fans. They are ugly but quiet and capable. You don’t need rgb fans/memory as you can’t see into the cases anyway.
fully agree these things are crazy loud from the factory. Overall the case design looks cool but is not ideal for air flow.

The LED fan may throw a support assist error due to too low RPM.
The trick is to keep the original fans inside the case and use PWM Y cables so that the DELL fans go to the PWM 4 pin sensors.
The pump and the liquid cooling fans should go to the 3 wire interfaces on the Y cables.

There will also be errors for the VRM if heatsink is not there and you add liquid cooling.
There are 2 heatsinks
Large Heatsink Part Number: J4642
Small Heatsink Part Number: 4D5V9

Re: "There will also be errors for the VRM if heatsink is not there and you add liquid cooling."
The R10 doesn't check for a VRM heatsink so you won't error on boot without it.
The smaller heatsink is only shipped with the flagship offering.
It would still be recommended for you to add heatsinks but you can get aftermarket options for a few bucks on amazon.

No, that's a radiator not a VRM heatsink.

R10 with 2 VRM heatsinks:
The R10 comes with 0, 1 or 2 VRM heatsinks (left or top or no heatsink) depending on config.

CORSAIR HYDRO SERIES H60 AIO Liquid CPU Cooler, 120mm Radiator, 120mm SP Series PWM Fan
Is it not heatsink?

Actually, your answer makes me confuse, you mean I should keep the original fan of my PC, and buy Corsair H60 and the cables you mentioned above?

This is a VRM heatsink (this is from the R11/12).

You need to open the case, or check your invoice or specs online.
All R10s have a fan which exhausts air out the top of the case.
You can see if AWCC lists cpu fan or pump running, but sometimes it lists cpu fan for liquid cooled pcs.

I checked my pc, the fan is on the top of case, I did not want to open the case, so is the fan on the top of cpu?
