Hello, recently joined the forum and decided I should probably just post up what nonsense I am planning on doing.

used to build a new computer constantly back in the day, and got ridiculously busy and havent built anything in about 8 years! what is this AMD nonsense that is happening! haha. anyways. Always was intruiged with small form factor and decided to see what can fit the bill of what I want to accomplish. Below is a list of parts. Will continue to post updates.

Dan case v4.1 on its side.
3950x
Asetek 645LT + 25mm fan. Original fan will be mounted at the bottom of the motherboard.
Losercard Mod + cables
asus rog strix x570i
gskill ripjaw 3600 cl16 16x2
Inland premium 2tb m.2 nvme - rear mounted + 3mm thermal pad.
2070s FE
corsair sf600 gold

finished the build. took a few days. had some thermal issues that has been resolved, and Losercard cables arrived today! She runs fantastic!

Laid out Dan. Didnt like the look of console cases and Dan A4 was thin enough for my application. Looks simple and classy. Love it!

prime95 for for about 15-20 minutes. just depends what you want. i wouldnt want to trade in a 240 aio for a 92 unless i had to. Ghost didnt fit my space constraints i had.

I dont see why not. Just remember you need something to block the psu cables from touching the fan blades.
