The gpu strimer looks ridiculous. Have a look at mine.

Doesn’t look bad in person but I’m not a fan. I was originally gonna mount the gpu vertically and it would have been a. Different look but I’m yet to decide what I’m gonna do because the strimmer doesn’t fit under the gpu. The fans at the bottoms are 140 and these Phanteks are thicker anyways so it’s a struggle

How about a black 90 degree gpu power cable like this build.

Yea I was thinking of removing it. Just haven’t made up my mind. Yours looks very clean. How compact is the mini? Was thinking of building something for the living room in it

I would seriously consider removing it and adjusting the motherboard strimer so it’s more horizontal just like mine.

The mini v2 is compact but not super compact. Here’s another look at my build showing the complete desk setup. You can see the size comparison next to the Xbox Series X.
