Thank you, same to you!
Here is the updated gallery (with bonus cat pic):
Under the motherboard, I just bundled all cables under the psu before, and even kept the ssd bracket installed. So I think a lot of heat got trapped between the cables.
Both as exhaust :)
I have a blackridge CPU cooler with this curve:
20% - 28c
40% - 38c
54% - 75c
74% - 80c
100% - 90c
idles at 990RPM / 46c cpu
and the 2 noctuas:
36% - 44c
49% - 78c
100% - 90c
idles at 1270RPM / 46c cpu
around 45dB at idle. while gaming it is audible but quiet.
Just added a second noctua a9x14 under the powersupply to help dump the heat, and did some cablemanaging.
temps:
CPU: 78/80c -> 62c
GPU: 80c -> 72c.
I did not expect this much difference. Very happy with the results. the PC is totally quiet under full load now! and the 3080 now runs at a...
The window kit came in!

I created a lasercut spacer for the dancase V4 and up, should be in on wednesday, I'll keep you guys updated. spacer adds 4mm so the XC3 will fit with a nice custom window kit :)
