Thanks friend! Yes - there is a reasonable amount of space in my build underneath the GPU. Based on my previous research in these threads, I think "slim" fans fit. I apologize that I don't have a more precise measurement. Re: temps - I've been crazy busy since my build, so have not been able to...

Thanks! It was part of a cheap but decently nice looking keyboard / mouse combo "good enough" for my uses at the moment from a company called Jellycomb. It's actually in the PCPartsPicker build list if you want the direct link (Amazon). The mouse is super underwhelming (luckily I have a...

It's done! It works! It looks beautiful! No machining flaws to my naked eye. It was my first build ever, so just stoked it turned on. I'm sure there are folks here that could seriously improve my cable management, but I did the best I could (and yay for closed side panels!) Parts list here...

Hey folks. I've been lurking this thread for weeks now, and, like nearly everyone else here, can't wait to get in my v.6 preorder. Super reassuring to see the support from Necere and everyone else on this thread / forum. Here's the thing: this is going to be my first ever PC build. I know I'm...
