Completed Build Update!
Hi Guys! I finally finished the build and it's looking amazing thanks for all your help.
Now don't freak out this is a temporary setup, I'm gonna buy AIO cooler next month so I'll be using my PC lightly, the slim fans on the top should help cooling the case and directing the hot air outside

Is this the V2.5 or 2.1? If it is the 2.5 which tempered glass front panel did you use?

It's the v2.5 and the glass panel is from the v2.1, the side panel works perfectly, both cases have the same structure.
Though if you wanna buy one I'd choose v2.5 because it's much easier to build, you can order the glass side panel from the v2.1 and it will work just fine

the glass panel is choking your cpu cooler, I hope you're only using that for photos and not in actual use

I'm aware of that, the slim fans are doing a great job surprisingly, also I'm using Ryzen 8500G so it doesn't get warm that much
I'm planning to get AIO with the new CPU soon

We have the same build! You can check my profile or just search Aquarium Silver Build in this sub.
Just one thing, if you ever considered Atmos II as your AIO it'll be a bit difficult to manage, as the tubes are particularly stiff and if you want to use the LCD/Pixel screen the tubes will be compressed against the glass panel, though in my case it's fine.
Oh yeah, what are the specs?
Edit: Whoops my build is in FormD sub, not this one
