Looking for a quiet case from OCuk, no window, will be adding a 3070.

Anyone see any issues with memory/cooler fitting or anything else look like a problem?

I'd be tempted to get a cheaper psu too

Thanks.

I've changed to the WD blue, also rethinking the PSU. I was just looking for a quiet cooler, D15 would be cooler with less fan rpm?

Now to hope for a 3060 or 3070 from a OCuk voucher

Was about to order but I don't see any way to pick a delivery day, I need a specific day for work reasons. Is it always next day delivery, so just order the day before?

Built the above system with some minor changes and my old gtx970. (thanks OCuk).

I used the D15S as recommended and memory installation was a breeze. The only thing I messed up was not attaching 3 power cables to the motherboard, since when does a mb need 3 power cables?! My PSU is pretty full with the mb, gpu and 1 sata drive.

The system is super quiet, the only thing audible is the cpu fan, I need to mess around with the fan curve.
