I'm super excited to share my second PC build. I've always been a huge fan of the PC building community, especially SFF and mini-itx builds. My first PC was in a K39 case (5600x, 3060ti one-fan mod, 32gb ram, 2tb ssd) which is hella cute and super portable. It was important to me because of my traveling but it had quite a bit of heating problem as expected of a case that had such a limited space and airflow (especially since the GPU was originally a 2-fan card but modded to be single fan). This started annoying me a lot and I wanted to do a build where I could game without having to undervolt heavily to decrease temps or going deaf from the fan noise. For this build I focused on affordability and dark-aesthetic with enough performance to play AAA games at 1440p.

I just noticed that the exhaust fan next to the CPU cooler is reversed. That make its blades very close to the rear grid causing unnecessary noise. I would consider installing a regular version of that fan (not reversed) to have some space between the fan blades and the rear grid resulting in reduced noise produced by that fan
