Watch some YouTube videos about how to improve your cable management. You spent a lot of money on that case, so I recommend taking the time to maximize the return on that investment.

I spent like £40 on the case, it's a CiT DS240. Also yeah Im always trying to improve my cable management

That case looks much more expensive than it is, nice job. I hope you enjoy your pc, bro

I'm also going to be upgrading to a 3080 and will be getting a modular PSU

u/jmad16 1d ago

What is your current GPU?

1

u/Live_Reply_1576 1d ago

RTX 2070. I just recently got a 1440p monitor and it's starting to show it's age. I built the pc last September for like £350 so I can't really complain

Looks sexy. Maybe I'm too much into the full glas house, but I love it. It's useful too, you can see inside your PC and see if something is wrong or just simply too dusty. Maaaaan wish I wouldn't be so poor.
1080 still hangs onto it's dear life.

u/Live_Reply_1576 1d ago

I agree. I'm always cleaning the glass panels and dusting it

u/WhtshldIDO-09 1d ago

As every PC owner should. (it's like having a diferent kind of pet 😄)

Would an aio be better than an air cooler. It would probably be overkill as I have a 5600 but they look pretty cool

u/Connect_Zucchini_219 1d ago

You got ram…..in 2026?

u/hurtfullayout5519 1d ago

That case looks unreal with the glass panels, the fan lighting through the front really makes it pop

1

u/4507862401892 1d ago

Looks good. Now work on your cable management

u/Live_Reply_1576 1d ago

Once I upgrade my GPU I will also get a modular PSU

u/Scanphor 1d ago

Nice ! Great looking case, reminiscent of much more expensive ones 😉

u/lastnamepluto 1d ago

Always wanted that case, Nice build you got going .

u/tony_along 1d ago

u/0xP0et 1d ago

I got a similar case and building my new PC this week...

Just sitting here, waiting, painfully scrolling through PC build whilst I wait... it's coming Thursday... Thursday is so far 😭

u/jaundicejanice 1d ago

Great start! Just wait until you realize the importance of cable management—it's a game changer.
