The initial build is done Build Log
Is there a 'fitting' problem? I mean, the 2 side panels (TG and mesh) do not seem to align well with the top panel, leaving an uneven gap from front to rear.

I wonder what the thermals (CPU, GPU, SSDs, PSU) will be after, say, 1 hour of gaming?

Nan, just my AIO tube keeps push the top panel off. The panels are really loosely connected and pop out easy.

Have‘t do any real work on this machine yet but what I can tell is that my PSU is not doing ok for sure. My SGX650 is loud af and the glass panel + 4slot mode left absolutely no space for it to breath.

I will probably use it with glass panel off till I can get a SF750 and a secondary mesh panel.

The SGX cutouts for the fan also create a weird noise. SF750 would be better for sure but if you can't find one, the revised Cooler Master PSU I have has been great.

So importing the case from from US to Canada via UPS, got hit with a $32CAD duty charge. I’m happy it wasn’t too bad as it’s hit and miss sometimes with duty charges haha

I usually try to stick with USPS and DHL for shipping but I’m this case they were much more expensive this time around!

For anyone who has this case with the PSU closer to the mobo , how much room does that leave you between the PSU and mobo/spine? Can still fit wires between them ??

I will say the one thing I miss about the Intel sockets is how the socket mounts are symmetrical leaving you more options with coolers like the EK AIO being able to have the tubes going to any side you want on the 4 sides of the socket. AMD you are stuck with left or right and that’s it lol

Anyone know which screws to use with the 3D printed feet? There are no screws dedicated in the manual for them and the threads don't really seem to match any of the screws the case comes with.

No space in 4 slot GPU mode and I believe slightly more space in 3 slot mode (SFX psu closer the mobo side)

No idea tbh, but I just measured it using fusion 360 and the hole is 4mm wide. Is there any M4 screw in the kit?
