BUILD NOTES

RTX 5080 Founders Edition + R7 7800X3D in McPrue Apollo Air. 1x NF-A12 G2 fan swap on Peerless Assassin 120 MINI. 1x side NF-A12 G2 + 2x NF-A14 G2 top case fans. 140mm fans are running at roughly 700RPM fixed and 120mm CPU and side case fans at around 1000RPM fixed. In place of the front case fan mounting, I installed 16TB Exos 3.5'' HDD: https://link.amazon/B04RbEkhX mounted with single screw and some double sided velcro. The system is super quiet and stays well within thermal limits even under load. On case itself its very high quality with tight tolerances and 15L mark is around the sweet spot of size vs. compatibility. I have no complaints.
