Hello together :-)

after some hours of building my new SFF PC build is ready for gaming. This is my first SFF build and the first PC build after over 10 years of gaming-abstinence ;-)
I had some sort of luck at picking my CPU because my Ryzen 3600 runs perfectly stable at 4.5 GHz and also my memory is rock-stable @ 3900 MHz CL14.

Here are my components:

CPU: Ryzen 3600 @ 4.500 GHz, 1.381 V with Noctua NT-H1
GPU: Zotac 2080 Super AMP @ 1935 MHz Core and 17.200 MHz RAM
RAM: G.Skill Trident Z 16 GB @ 3800 MHz CL14-14-14-28 with 1.900 MHz Infinity Fabric Clock
Mainboard: ASUS ROG Strix B450 I Gaming
PSU: Corsair SF600 Platinum
AIO: Corsair H100i RGB Platinum with 2x Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM
Case-Fans: 2 Noctua NF-A8 PWM
Case: Sharkoon Shark Zone C10 with HDD bracket removed

Temps:

CPU @ idle: 35-40c
CPU @ gaming load: 48-55c
CPU @ Prime95: 65-67c

GPU @ idle: 35-37c
GPU @ load: 50-70c

Benchmarks:

3D Mark Fire Strike: 24.955
3D Mark Time Spy: 11.709
Port Royale: 7.244

Cinebench R15 Multicore: 1.791
Cinebench R15 Singlecore: 211

Cinebench R20 Multicore: 4.093
Cinebench R20 Singlecore: 522



At the moment i do some testings on the airflow. I've configured the AIO as an exhaust at the side of the case (GPU is on top) and the two Noctua A8s as an intake from back and the bottom of the case. Do you may have any suggestions for still better airflow? Maybe the two A8s also as an exhaust?

The system is nearly completely silent except the GPU. The fans from ZOTAC are so damn loud that i think about to remove the stock fans and replace it with two Noctua NF-A12x15 PWMs. Do you may have any experience on stuff like this?

Thanks a lot and happy Holidays :-)
