Description

It had a budget of $1000 and the cpu cooler made it over budget.The motherboard was good except the m.2 thermal pad had a gouge in it. Also the holes on the cases psu shroud were pretty much blocked by the motherboard. Also the closest hole to the psu can't have anything through it because the psu is there.

Not a bad build yourself! I can easily appreciate a blackout theme. Also note about the blocked out holes I had some similar issues with the Be Quiet Silent Base 800 I was using where I needed to thread cables below and the CPU power cable all before laying the MOBO into it just to make it all possible. So frustrating only to realize after you seated it in!
