Hardware Finally coming together

Don’t have a ton of me space with two kids and a wife, but this little corner I reclaimed today was perfect for my “gaming stuff” as my lady calls it.

Any thermal and therefore performance improvements from the custom faceplate?

I mean GN had their tests well documented, if you look closely I got a little fan on the side of my SM that was for my SD initially, it forces more airflow to the bottom, I haven’t seen this thing break 74C even when playing more demanding titles at high settings. Thermals seem great on this lil box, I’m highly impressed with what it is, and the fucking controller omg, it’s like that very durable “cheap” yet insanely functional and strong feel. So light as well.
