Foef_Yet_Flalf got a reaction from noobftw in Heat-sync Removal
This person is correct. Also, most people spell the finned mass of metal atop a heat source a "heat sink."

I'd personally go for CPU and motherboard first.

And wait for Nvidia to release new GPU's.

I'm assuming you have a build with both an SSD and HDD? OS always goes on the SSD as a rule. Unless, however, you're looking for mid 2000s responsiveness.

Brace? Bracket?

Sounds like a great candidate for Old Laptop duty. Put it into a laptop that feels sluggish as a replacement to the 2.5" HDD, and you have a perfect present for your computer-curious cousin.

Wow, that bracket looks really cool. I will have to keep that in mind next time I want to do a SFF build.
In the end I opted to return the oversized card without test-fitting and get the Zotac Super Mini RTX 2070, which has plenty of clearance below and behind in my case.

Foef_Yet_Flalf got a reaction from Tristerin in Sizing an AIO Cooler
I'd like to use a 120 mm rad because I'd like this build to fit in a mini ITX-specific case. If there is such a case that supports rads that big, I'd love to see it.
An alternative would to build a custom loop that puts two 120mm rads in series (and have a case that has two fan mounting points, but I'd rather not have to deal with a custom loop atm).
