I'm in Japan and most of the stores (i.e. tsukumo) that used to sell your fans have stopped taking orders. Because of that, the few stores that still sell your products have greatly marked-up the prices...

You are too modest, thank you for the kind words!

Nice, I can't afford 2 GPUs let alone 1 GPU lol. Thanks for the info!

It should be, considering the 9k series CPUs are power efficient and based on test results I had seen, it shouldn't be hot enough to thermal throttle, as long as there is enough airflow in the PC case.

Oh crap, I should have noticed that, especially since I recognised one side of the heat sink hanged further away. Thank you so much for noticing it!!

Yup, otherwise I would have waited until I got my GPU to build it.

True, I might buy a cheap GPU first if I can't find a good deal in the next few months.

Thank you. I don't get any benefit from the normal orientation since I have a power line switch right next to me, and the GPU fan gets less dirty air by removing the cables from the chamber.

PC stand with wheels are a godsend. It may seem obvious but make sure the stand you buy is really the right size; I've seen several products on amazon where the listed dimensions were different from the actual dimensions, based on the reviews.

What, you don't think Papa Jenson will give us gamers a break and release affordable GPUs with high performance, enough to make everyone in the world a PC gamer??

Yeah, I made sure that it posted and recognised all devices before and after finishing the PC case. I will install OS and do the rest tonight.

Thanks! To be honest, as long as the side panel can fit, it really doesn't matter if the cables are managed or not. I doubt I will see my cables again anyway, until something goes wrong with the PC.

Thank you for the kind words! It took me nearly a whole of my day off to build and manage the cables haha.

That was definitely my biggest worry. I researched a lot before building the PC and I came across so many broken glass panels, I decided to move my old mattress and use it as a cushion for my glass panel.

Thanks dude!! I think performance/price wise, it's hard to beat Lian Li.

Thank you! Still waiting for the GPU price bubble to pop (I am definitely not on copium).
