Post of the day!

The P is a DIY Bitsa sprayed with Shell Pink nitrocellulose lacquer for the old school vibe, with a vintage voiced pickup and flats for the old school thump. The Jazz is a Fender Player series in Tidepool, strung up with DR Hi-beams for epic slaps. Also just very versatile being a Jazz with modern Fender pickups.
I love shell pink, great colour. All those old nitro colours are great. Fender Player series looks brilliant. I bet that's a fantastic. I love my Jazz - I've got a Sire V7. Also got a P bass, but that rarely sees the light of day any more.

Second part of the AV upgrade arrived today. Wanted a new av receiver that supports HDMI 2.1 and HDCP 2.3 for the new TV and the incoming PS5. This one seemed to get rave reviews everywhere so got my first Denon. Only ever used Yamaha receivers until now

Very impressive indeed! 
Corsair 4000D Airflow and Palit 3080 purchased and build completed
The new Corsair range are great - nice tidy build.
@orbitalwalsh - you're favourite case is on display - and dressed up in an AIO and RGB - just how you like them.

Thats the one. Will likely be replaced when I do the next build mind, don't see any benefit in having an ITX case in this form factor now with the extra space I have
From everything I'd read, they're considered a massive step up from the old Mexican Standard in terms of quality, more akin to the old American Standard
Without measuring and taking a guess on Fan Width probably what...another 40mm or so.
The Palit 3080 Gaming Pro is 294mm in length so certainly accommodate those larger cards.

Good to know as most seem to come in 320mm , though fan width is 25mm .. so close... Very close
Yeah I can easily go Push/Pull with my AIO with some space spare, needed to move on from the Fara R1 as in all honestly once the rad was top mounted the temps went up massively, the small spaced of the case just couldn't cope.
I will say the vertical mount of the case for this does seem rather pointless as unless it's a true Two Slot cooler then it's not happening. The Palit 2.5 slot so it would right up against the glass. Nice option to have I suppose, just utterly pointless for some high end versions of cards.
The build was a pleasure though, the cable management is top notch and makes it so simple to put together a really nice and clean build. Absolutely loving it in all honesty.
What speakers are you going to use with this?Second part of the AV upgrade arrived today. Wanted a new av receiver that supports HDMI 2.1 and HDCP 2.3 for the new TV and the incoming PS5. This one seemed to get rave reviews everywhere so got my first Denon. Only ever used Yamaha receivers until now

Tannoy Mercury Floorstanders and Mercury 7C Centre, Mercury Loudspeakers for the surrounds, and it's a Tannoy sub (spot the theme). Obviously not top end speakers, but for the size of my room and how loud I can have it 99% of the time with two kids, they are definitely more than good enough
