With the H100, you don't have to worry about RAM fitting under a bulky cooler, so anything will fit.
2) Modding your H100 can be fun, but its pointless. Best you could do is add a resevoir and a different radiator (still just a 240mm). Anything else, and it's too much on the weak H100 pump. You cannot cool your GPU with it with a GPU block, you'll kill the pump. If you want to later on tweak with proper water cooling, it'd be best to just bite the bullet and get proper water gear.
