I'm not recommend xflow rads. Depends on the orientation, the pump or the IO shield can block the way for your tubes. I also has an ST30 and works really well with the case. If it's the 280mm one.
Stalled DICE CASES - FLOW : expandable SFF case for watercooling enthusiast (built in distroplate)

- Start date
Thx for your advice.
I'm planning on integrating the CPU first. The GPU later on when I got a new one.
Nonetheless I'll start with two 280mm ST30. I want to avoid compatibility issues in the future, so the normal versions seems the better choice.

To anyone interested in the 3080/3090 reference pcb, palit seems to be a solid choice.
i must admit it looks much better in real life than in stock photos IMHO. As well, for being a "cheap reference" design, this is milles away in quality and sturdiness compared to something like a 2080ti Zotac X3.

I'd also recommend against XFlow unless there's some tube run issue that it solves. With the full-size DDC and D5 options available in this case, you should have no issue with restrictive flow. I plan on putting two HWLabs 280GTS Rads in it with an EK D5 PWM pump.
As for tubing, 10/13 seems to be the most often used tube size for soft tubing, although I use 10/16 ZMT from EK (matte black rubber rather than clear).
Just make sure you buy fittings that are correct, and note that Hardline fittings are different than soft tubing fittings. So if you switch tubing later, you will need to switch fittings.
Yeah, I noticed that the fittings are different for hard and soft tubing. I went for 11/8 in the end as diameter doesn't seem to impact the performance that much while the tubing and fittings are much cheaper.
I also got myself a memory upgrade this week during the Prime Days. 32Gb Crucial Ballistics and 2Tb MX500. So no worries about the size of the gaming library anymore
@diceboii13 can we have some sort of an update with the cases?
As well, do you have the measurements of the pci riser. I want to grab a pci 4.0 as it will be a pain to reset the bios and the whole thing not working at all. Is it straight or it has a right angle at the end?

PSU & GPU wiring

We’re almost there. Only have the 24 pin, 8 pin CPU power, Molex power for my Aquaero 6. Maybe up and running by the end of the week.
Can’t wait to see temps.

No but I can post them here when I’m done.
I guess it’s worth mentioning I’ll be using an SFX-L power supply but I don’t know how much difference it would actually make.
It's a difference of 30mm so at worst you just add 30mm to each cable.
Please do post the lengths when you get them done! Would be appreciated.
Here are the dimensions:

First 2 slots are in the post office, as I got tracking numbers, I'll send it. Sorry for the lack of reply, I've been sick this week.. but I have more time to assemble and send the cases.
No worries Dice, I can wait as long as you keep me informed. Get well first, health takes priority.Here are the dimensions:
