Hey, is this getting hot here?

Because your setup is pretty LIT!!

(Sorry for my bad boomer wanna be a cool guy joke)

Probably the roasty comment from me, the glass on your PC seems need to be wiped since it seems has fingerprint oil on the right side

And the lower side intake seems to have a lot of dust attached to the intake fan, but it may be light reflection or a filter than is full of dust

 

Other than that, nice setup!

My System: Ryzen 7800X3D // Gigabyte B650 AORUS ELITE AX // 32GB DDR5 Silicon Power Zenith CL30 // Sapphire Pulse AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT OC with mod heatsink on the metal plate  // Phanteks P300A  // Gigabyte Aorus GEN4 7300 PCIE 4.0 NVME // Kingston NV2 Gen4 PCIE 4.0 NVME // 

Seasonic Focus GX-850 Fully Modular // Thermalright Frost Spirit 140 Black V3 // Phanteks M25 140mm // Display: Bezel 32MD845 V2 QHD // Keychron K8 Pro (Mod: Gateron black box ink; Tape mode on PCB and Keycaps) // Razer Cobra Wired Mouse // Audio Technica M50X Headphone // Sennheiser HD 650 // Genius SP-HF180 USB Speaker //

honestly i won't hate on what you did with the space. the third picture PC could use a cleaning there is a face in the side panel due to a flash possibly also sometimes it is best to side panel remove when taking internal side shots. 

 

desk is a bit cluttered but (if it has a daily purpose i won't complain)

wall is busy with a lot on hung stuff but (see above)

some clean attempts as cable management while other areas are a bit free. im guessing for VR accessories and the like. (see top line)

vaporwave is nice id also add a desk ambient light or even a bottom floor track. Top is busy with RGB but nothing middle or lower ground. 

 

id say with the above comments taken into consideration a solid 6

Honestly I didn't even notice the finger prints untill you pointed it out haha, and yeah sadly she is a bit dusty, need to get a dust fan to clean my fans. Also I don't mind the boomer joke, I'm only 23 after all 😜 But thanks!

Yeah, I wanted to find some nice lights for the desk, also the clutter is because I work for a medical university doing everything from game design, to animation, to prototyping and engineering.

I'm going to guess you did it piece meal huh?

 

I expected it to come out worse but that's pretty decent. All id want to add would be the chassis fan to compensate that O11 is pretty poor on air cooling.
