Might I suggest making dedicated countersunk mount hole pattern to place an asetek 645LT 92mm water cooler? This would make for the opportunity to fit a 200mm GPU (Asus 3060 ti dual mini, MSI 3060 itx aero), the liquid power on something like a 5600x or some other similar 65-95w TDP CPU’s the future may bring and make for a fairly hidden mounting compared to cap head screws. The 645 is a great candidate as it has the 90 degree fittings making for a more manageable build, smaller tubing, and most importantly giving us a more usable alternative to the SFF copper blocks.


Along with this, I know you have your plate behind the gpu that helps block hot air from pooling. It may be worth making this airblock a two piece so that you can remove the section closest to the front of the chassis to allow air pass-thru of gpu’s much like the 3070/3080 fe’s. This would alternatively work to help feed the 120/92mm liquid cooler with an air pass-thru making for better temps, as well still giving the ability to block the air pooling behind the gpu. Making it optionally installed when you use a longer gpu such as the evga 3080 xc3 to provide that same hot air pooling protection.
