Nice. Should look good. Also nice to see some progress on some projects - and I'm not pointing any sort of finger here, just that posted projects seem few and far between these days....and I'm totally in that boat now as most of my stuff is in crates trying to get ready to move.

Well summers on the way so it slows down then any way.
Case and fans arrived. Will start on that in a bit.
Edit. I had to order an internal usb hub too. I thought you could link lcd and non lcd fans but apparently not.
Edit. You can and can’t. IE you can link them to the same wireless controller but not physically together.
I also found out that mechanically LGA 1700 is the same as LGA 1851 so I’m going to use my EK 360 AIO. Which saves me £40.

Pics coming later.
I couldn’t fit the reverse fan in the middle of two LCD so it looks a bit odd. Never mind, OCUK had another 3 pack of reverse 120 LCD for £59. lol. So they are ordered.
I will then use one of the two spare fans as a floor intake and keep one as a spare.
Also ordered some thermal paste as I’m not sure what is where right now. Oh and some dust filters.

Last pic is what will come tomorrow, and hopefully be the last piece. The USB hub came today along with some VHB I ordered. I am going to use one of the reverse intakes there in the front at the bottom and keep the other as a spare.
OK so that stuff arrived yesterday and has been fitted. The screen was a bit of a sod to mount but will look amazing.
There are two more deliveries today. One is a fan hub as I took them all to mum’s when I did the Alienware and the other is a full custom cable set from cable mod. Inc the 12v GPU cable. They’re like a baby blue colour as it was all a bit black and dark.
Pics later when hopefully I’ll have more done

Good afternoon. I trust you are all having a lovely Sunday !
OK so here is where I am at. All of the fans are now in, as is the screen.
7 LCD now instead of 5.
The screen.
And I fitted two filters so far. One to the floor (it was the perfect size)
l]
And one to the front. Taking care each time to make sure you won't see the VHB once the panels go on.
Then around back for cable management. Note I have fitted a Thermalright USB internal hub, as well as a large fan come RGB hub.
Sadly as posted DPD failed to arrive. Particularly annoying as I had something else unrelated coming with and needed it. They are coming tomorrow apparently, and will be bringing these.
A full custom cable set. What's nice is they not only give you a 3 PSU connector to 12vh but also a straight 12vh. It needed something to break up all of the black. GPU is black, board is black, cooler etc.
