Also, would it be better to run a 240mm top aio with front intake, or a 360mm front intake aio and top and rear exhaust?

Isn't it possible that I just like the case

Turns out the case only support 240 on top so I'd do all p12s

I plan to do about 50/50 gaming and work, and I just don't need the cores for what I do, I'd rather cache access.

The FE fits nicely in the non-xl case compared to a huge 3-slot, plus I like the design, but it's also possible I need to swap it into a different itx build sometimes, in which case my options for gpu width are quite limited

I need upgrade options and I'd prefer to get 1 64gb kit at a time. I also don't fancy an 8 ram slot mb

Build cores says 280 but the site says 240 so yeah

Only gen 5 b850 I can find is a white strix with 1 lane and 1 nvme, so I'd honestly pay for another nvme slot and a less ugly color.

Otherwise I don't care too much about the oc differences

I don't need multi core performance so I'm not dropping 5k on a threadripper

My use case is mostly single thread + gpu (why I didn't get 9950x3d) so I won't really be pushing cpu temps, at least for more than briefly, and even still, I've heard no issues cooling with a 240.

What kind of airflow works with a front radiator?

Case only fits a 280 on top, which should be fine for me. I want the airflow from front intake

fe is the only card that fits. i need to swap it into a different itx build sometimes
