My HX750i turned up today...along with the 2080ti, and it comes with tie wraps, more than enough.

Just waiting for the ram to turn up, but here's the wired up state so far. It does power on, thankfully, the blower on the gpu is loud as hell, but i want to see speeds and temps benchmarks before i put the after market one on.

Looks good. Move top fan to front . Currently running negative pressure so dust will be drawn through unfiltered gaps

i thought so, i dont really understand why that is the default position for these fans. they're only 3 pin as well.

EDIT: Fixed. Still waiting on the RAM.

Negative gives better temps , but so much inside case dust

Memory arrived this morning. Booted to bios first time, thankfully.

@orbitalwalsh i've built it, installed

CPUID,
GPUID,
CPUID HWMonitor,
MSI afterburner,
thaiphoon - run that exported to
DRAM calc, changed bios settings
Prime95 for ages with no issues - CPU temps at 64
memtest86 - run for 4 passes no errors all stable

What's next? 3dmark? i need to overlock my gpu before/after replacing the blower.

GPU oc'ed +170
GPU Mem +600
