I'm currently looking to build in the Nova1024 case from Taobao. ( https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=586065444805 )

I like the aesthetic that comes with the transparent acrylic sidepanels, though I'm worried about the thermals.

There's almost no information on the internet about this case outside of China presumably.

This is my current proposed build: (Price in EUR if curious)

The GPU is still an uncertainty, I'm looking at an AIB 5700 XT or a 2070S FE.

Would the 3 fans at the top of the case be enough to sufficiently cool the components inside, or would I be met with throttling due to the acrylic sidepanels?

Thanks in advance for your time!
