This is probably a dumb request, but I'll regret it terribly if I don't at least ask... I know your recommendation is to have an AIO on the CPU and a blower card for the case version with glass sides, but the thought of a blower card screaming at 3k RPM during games doesn't sound particularly appealing. In my dreams I would be using the spot for the 140mm rad for the GPU and the CPU would be air cooled. I was wondering if you could test something like a fanless Be Quiet! Shadow Rock LP with a 140x15mm fan blowing up through it like the demo'd setup for the Sliger 550. I'd greatly appreciate it to know if this setup would be a viable build. (The Shadow Rock heatsink is 50.4mm tall and the site lists compatibility for 51mm coolers. It may not fit, but there's probably something similar enough. I secretly wish the 2mm wasn't shifted to the GPU side a couple months ago.)On that note, I know it was probably enough of a struggle as is to increase the clearance on the bottom to allow for a 280x23mm rad, but it seems like a crying shame to be 2mm away from allowing 140x25mm fan compatibility! A 15mm vs. 25mm tall fan could have a large effect on how viable the above style build would be. Thanks for listening.
