Im thinking about this case or the bigger one. How have you found this case? It looks quite small with everything in there.. I kinda like that idea as many cases seem to have excess room.

Still prefer my personal rig which uses Jonsbo UMX4 . lot small, better build quality but is more limited to water cooling but easier to manage cables .

This one did surprised me front of house but cabling at the back is a nightmare and would suggest the 570X over this , slightly more higher but allows slightly more freedom .
Specially if you want to stick AIO IP lot like I did

I have a corsair 240mm AIO so that would need to be accounted for. Thanks for sharing though, it looks really nice!

Of your mounting at the top in the 460 you need low profile ram, if not has to go to the front . I believe the 570 it would mount fine and push pull may be achievable with lower profile ram
 
Right, updated Relive to latest beta version along with Win 10 creator patch which has helped complete a run for Fire strike which was causing System to black screen before



System was running on Wattman at default values so think core speed was 1250hz odd which power set to 50% on both cards.
Was run with Ryzen 5 1600 at default clock and 2933hz on the RAM.
Next is to try overclock @3.8 like with a single card then to get GPUs to aorus rated speeds, then after that with Aorus Engine enabled

Looking good. How's the graphics card performing? Thinking of picking one up, if just the RGB part of it haha.

XTR is performing well! really surprised and Gigabyte learnt lessons from 400 series. They tend to cool all 3 main components on the main heatsink which is great for lifespan but generated more heat with the older design just having enough enough heatsink real estate , this time around it almost has to much haha.

Have noticed with two that fans now do turn on running Firestrike benchmarks but still sits at 53c degrees which is fantastic - no pun intended .
Yet to apply Thermal Grizzle to it but Estimate a good 4-5c should be knocked off at load. Design of it is pretty sweet since the PCB is narrower then the sink, you can see the rad fins at the top of the card and hot air easily flows from this gap to the top of the case naturally.

bit gutted over the weekend though as Gigabyte APP forced a firmwire update and somehow has cause ryzen master to now trigger Ram XMP . Going to have to fiddle around again

Also re-ran Firestrike and hit 11K+ with correct core speeds, now need to set ram speed to 9 Gbps like i did one only one was set and get ram to correct speed again
 
So windows Creator update along with beta Crimson driver and Xfire working like a charm.
Bios reset to default and XMP selected again its not back up to normal with Ryzen Master.
Last to do is manually dial In best 3.8 OC to lowest voltage in the bios

So much more room now the Custom AIO is out, lowers Temps to 43c when running Firestrike Extreme :
Used Thermal Grizzlie on the H100 which has helped by 5c under load :)
