New build, after 10 years

Originally I wanted to go full stealth, but these days, getting anything without RGB is a challenge. After I saw the Red Devil, I kind of liked it, so I adjusted the case RGB strip to match. I'm pretty happy with the result in the end.

 

Parts list:

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7950X
  • GPU: AMD Radeon 7900XTX 24GB - Power Color Red Devil
  • RAM: Kingston Fury Beast 64GB(2x32GB)/6000MTs/36-38-38/DDR5
  • motherboard: Asus ROG Crosshair X670E GENE
  • storage: Kingston Fury Renegade 1TB (boot)
  • storage: Kingston NV2 2TB (game library 2xRAID-0)
  • cooling: Noctua NH-D15S chromax.black + extra 140x150mm fan
  • thermal paste: Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut
  • PSU: Seasonic Prime PX-1300
  • case: Fractal Design Torrent Compact Black TG Dark + extra 180mm fan
  • UPS: APC BX2200LI-GR

Notes:

  1. My choice of OS is Fedora Linux
  2. Yes, I'm aware the PSU is overkill, I aimed for clean and consistent power power delivery and never want it to have to work hard.
  3. I've had my share of issues with some component compatibility; motherboard, nvme-module, cooler fin-stack, fans, case
  4. I've had some mounting pressure issues, shared my experience here

Red, the universal accent color.

 

Love the inverse mount on the D-15, that looks so sick.

Thank you. 🙏 It's actually the only way I could mount the 2 fans on the fin-stack. Sure, the center fan has more play, but I wanted to line them up. Still wasn't disappointed how it ended up looking in the end.

Holy cable management. Love how clean and organized it is. Especially the back. Does the case have mounting points for cable ties in the back or how did you get those attached?
