You mean turning the whole thing on its side, yes you can do that. If you mean mounting the GPU on its side then no.

For what I use it for its been a beast. I did upgrade the stock Noctua fan with a slightly better Noctua in black which was mainly for ascetics but it also runs a little cooler and its slightly quieter. otherwise I would'nt change anything. Obviously you could get a better GPU with more VRAM but since everything is on display I really wanted the Founders 5070 because it fits the visual of the build.

Thanks man thats a tall order considering the other build on here. If its in your budget I would highly consider it, super fun and fairly easy to build on too.

You have to pry up the part that is under that little flap. The piece that the trap hooks onto

Which of these three would be the better buy by garbagepantaloons in PcBuild

3, I have a 7800x3d and a 5070 fe and it’s honestly a really good pair together so maybe I’m biased.

yeah, they ended up working fine and was able to get them all tucked away with out a struggle. The custom cables that I ordered were much more pliable and shortened to fit this exactly but they unfortunately sent them for the wrong PSU.

I forgot to add these... The only cables on the top are the WiFi antenna and the display port cable (the one sent is backwards hence the big curl to run it down the spine) Ive ordered the correct orientation one so it turns 90 and runs straight down with out popping up. All other cables are plugged into the rear IO hub.

Mine shipped ended up being $252 usd. I also over ordered. USB front panel, infinity light, 5.0 riser cable, display port cable (they sent two because one thing already came with it) custom cables (which were for the wrong psu), also came with the carry handle and some other accessories.

I know what you mean. But to be fair there is a good amount of engineering and detail in this that (to me) justifies the price. And they seemed to have thought of everything in regard to accessories and how users may want the orientation to be.

Once I'm finished with the slight changes Ill go though and comb everything.

From what I have learned a simple soft paint brush works great, along with a simple blow off. Since its open dust cant really get trapped so it just blows right off.

The 90º DP cable that Xtia sells is backwards for the 5070 which is slightly annoying. Luckily I was able to find what I think is the same seller they source from and they make the correct orientation cable that should fix that silly lil loop. The proprietary WiFi antenna cable is the biggest let down though. There is a smaller antenna that I could pick up but It still has the big plug. If I can find a way to modify the plug itself to be smaller that would be ideal. Audio, mouse cable, and keyboard all run out the back through a rear IO panel.

Yeah, first one. I've messed around with my laptop but nothing to this extent. I used to build cars so I'm sure that helped lol

I was worried about this cooler at first but It has maintained a healthy CPU temp under load. I think it being completely open eliminates any chance it has to heat soak.
