It took quite a few hours and the odd bit of post-midnight frustration last night, but all working well indeed.

Now on to installing a few games and giving it a proper benchmark!
 
I've installed MSFS 2020 and RDR2, both work very well indeed on 4K ultra.

Unfortunately it's in 'workshop mode' at the moment due to technical issues (I suspect a faulty Motherboard.. or at least I hope) posted on one of the other forums on here.

I'll gladly take some pics when it's back to health although not super attractive due to opting for minimal RGBs.
