    That GPU release button is probably the best motherboard upgrade in a decade!
    When you have huge CPU air cooler, add just as large GPU and install some m.2 below GPU it's basically impossible to reach the PCIE release lever from any side. Except with a very long screwdriver between the CPU and GPU from the top, but also depends on the GPU backplate and then there is the risk of the screwdriver slipping and hitting your expensive MB. Finally someone from manufacturers has addressed that stupid thing.

    Another amazing video from Optimum Tech. Didn’t even need to watch it but I did just because of the quality content that he is putting out there, the time and effort put into this, and how well he explains this for the newbies. Just a couple notes that weren’t thoroughly explained in this video for the newbies:
    1. Make sure you have the I/O shield ready to go over your motherboards I/O when you are installing your motherboard.
    2. M.2 drives do go in at an angle, they don’t just sit completely flat when you slot them, you have to angle it in and then push the opposite side of it down flush with the screw mount.
    3. Also look into fan orientation. These fans point in specific directions for flow of air so you want to make sure you have them oriented correctly to optimize airflow in and out of your case.

    Very nice build and an excellent video as always 👍 FYI, you can install an AIO such as the Corsair H115i Pro 280 in the front. I had the radiator placed on the outside of the front mounting bracket and the fans inside. With the MSI 3090 Suprim I had to unscrew the rad and mount it back after inserting the GPU. I don't recommend running anything above the RTX 3080; it gets toasty inside the case, since the GPU sits right up against the glass (glass got hot to the touch). All heat issues went away with the Lancool 2 Mesh.

    I have this case with a Kraken x62 mounted in the front and a Red Devil 6900xt which is roughly 330mm long, most cards will fit with an AIO front mounted. Installing the card was... Playing Tetris while riding a rollercoaster but its doable. The Suprim X 3080ti is 336mm long and might actually be one of the few that wont fit with an AIO. This build looks amazing and honestly I will probably go the no RBG route next time I build, extremely tired of cable managing full RBG systems.

    I want to be build a PC at some point and i have been looking at air cooling. I dont plan on building such a powerful PC as this but I’m glad to know you can air cool and still have good results

    Thank you, Ali! I needed this! Still trying to assemble my FormD T1 2080 founders, i10900K, etc.,... It's slow going.

    As always, nicely done. I'm glad you cleared up the AMD option at the start. That 5800x3D looks freaking amazing for games at a lower TDP so cooler and quieter builds. This air cooled option looks great though the RAM height is an issue. Perhaps LPX RAM would be make it possible to mount that 2nd fan. G-Skill Ripjaws S5 look sleek and would suit the build.

      Didn't even know about the S5 till you said it. I bought the normal Ripjaws together with a NH-D15 a month ago. Luckily my case is big enough to offset the fan... But if I had known...

      The 5800X3D is just 5800X with just stacked of memory cache being glued together. Plus, Evil Su decided not to add 3D on the Zen++++ on the first go, and you will have to wait a year later for a 3D version of it.

    This a great show for the First PC Builder , 1 more thing need to notice is , fans have direction , in / out face need to check before install , mostly fan will have a NARROW mark on ! Also measure the GPU LONG with the CASE ROOM .
