Alright, so a while back, I wanted to use a GameCube case for my build, and I know it's been done, but I really wanted to do a high performance gaming build.
I'm fairly new to this, and really unsure if any of this will work, but here goes.
I saw the new stx mobos,
Figure this puppy should suit my needs
GIGABYTE GA-H110MSTX-HD3 (rev. 1.0)

And then I was going to go with an Intel i7 core 7700k
Since it's the best CPU I could find that I figured might work. I'm fairly sure I'll have to update the firmware on my motherboard to get everything in working order, but after that I'm sure I can find a low profile cooler that will work
Perhaps this fellow, the NT07-1156

Then I've figured any 2133 SO-DIMM should do, might just go with 1 16 gig stick.
And any ssd should do as well, as I'll likely have to get an m.2 to pcie 4 pin converter and then a 4pin to 16 pin riser. Possibly a powered riser? For a dedicated GPU. And Mobo only really has one usable m.2
I really want to do a gigabyte GeForce gtx 1080 itx.

I know it's a bit long for the case, but I think I should be able to figure something out.
I'm just really unsure if I'm a nut or not, so that's what I was thinking, lemme know if anybody sees any issues? My biggest issue in researching is figuring how to power the system. Know almost nothing about that.
I guess the biggest issue is that the Mobo uses a DC power input, so my best guess is grabbing a 330w ac-dc power adapter and a 400w hdplex dc-atx psu.
And then get some help with the wiring.
Do I sound like a nut? Or is any of this remotely possible?
Would much appreciate any input whatsoever
