I've recently bought a new place with my other half and now have less space for a tower for HTPC/VR duties.
I've bought a Silverstone Grandia GD09 htpc case and have managed to squeeze it in to my TV unit ( just) with a few caveats the left hand side is completely up against my centre speaker so there will be zero airflow from there I'll need to fit the PSU with the fan drawing from the inside.
I'd like to fit 2 HDDs and an SSD (not including the m.2 drive )
I have a full ATX board which shouldn't be a problem but also have a MATX board I could use if it would be better.
Relevant hardware I'm working with
3900x with wraith prism
Titan X Pascal with Kraken bracket and H55 120 aio ( also have stock cooler)
240 aerocool aio
Second h55 120mm cooler
I'm trying to decide how to best cool the CPU and GPU
Do I put the 240 aio on the right hand side and just put the HDDS in loose and refit the blower to the GPU?
Use a 120 aio for the CPU and GPU on the right hand side and put the drives in loose
Use a 120 for the CPU only and refit the blower on GPU
Use a 120 for the GPU only and use the wraith on the CPU?
Or any other suggestions?
I can never figure out how to link images properly but I have put a link to the gallery below.
Thanks in advance.
