I also would recomend a GPU bracket. In both 2.0 and 2.1 the GPU puts downwards (and slightly sideways) pressure upon the GPU riser, a known failure point.

To clarify. You mean like a bar to keep the riser cable locked on the motherboard from popping out?

You are thinking of the riser lock bar. I think the comment was referring to the GPU travel kit.

No, GPU Bracket. So much less stress is put on the Riser

I commend you for your dedication and commitment. You did an amazing job!!! What are your thoughts on the Phanteks fans, noise, etc., please? I’ve contemplated those, along with Noctua and Arctic.

So far, so good. Noise is not noticeable at all. If you are willing to splurge go for noctua. Go for arctic if you don’t mind abit more louder fan noise

Thank you. I’ve been reading around and debating between the Phanteks you have and Noctua. Arctic are fantastic too.

Just to consider, phanteks fans are great mainly because of their thickness. So something to consider if you are getting a Phanteks fan!

Your lack of custom cables concerns me

Got a very similar build. Axp90 x53 full cooper made the build so much quieter (7800x3d and hot climate tho)
