My first P.C. build looks more janky than it is

Hey, so i just build my first ever P.C. and just wanted to show it off and tell you a little bit about it.

First off, here are the Parts:

Ryzen 7 3700X
MSI B450 A-Pro Max Motherboard
Gigabyte RTX 2080 Super Gaming OC Windforce
Thermaltake Smart RGB 700 Watt Power Supply
SandDisk Extreme Pro m.2 NVMe 3D SSD 500 GB (Sata SSD will be added soon
Crucial Ballistix Tactical Tracer 16 Gigabyte 3200 MGz Dual Channel

Terra System Case (look, i can explain)

 

I forgot to take a picture of the Parts Pile, sorry for that. The only thing i made a picture of is the Case

This is a Terra i don't know the Name P.C. Case. Why would i choose such a case? I got it for free from my uncle, and it came with a free Windows Pro Licence as well.
Plus, only because it was free I was able to build this P.C. already. I had to, because my old Gaming Laptop that i used as a Desktop replacement just died in the middle of my Bachelors Thesis (all hail the mighty cloud)
It is fine to build in, and actually has kind of a Sleeper aestetic with a slight kick, as the side Panel is perforated a little bit showing the AMD Wraith Prism Coolers RGB. I kind of like it, but it will be replaced soon enough.

What wasn't so funny is the fact that the system wouldn't turn on after installing it. And yes, I tested it outside the Box.

Turns out: Connecting the Fan Logic to the Motherboard made the whole P.C. not start, so now i just have it on Turbo the whole time. I can handle the noise for now, but i will buy a set of new coolers FOR SURE in the future.

Now it works and does what it's supposed to: Game. Feels good to be part of the PC MR, finally.
