so basically,
the stock mounting hardware had features built-in to specifically prevent the user from installing a standard ATX motherboard and power supply. for example, the I/O panel and the PCIe bays are closer together than standard.
not willing to accept the fact that i had made an impulse purchase for just the *~*brutal aesthetics~ , i cut out the proprietary bs with a dremel and installed a full size ATX mount printed from this model: https://www.printables.com/model/836929-atx-motherboard-tray-in-two-parts
the power supply was tricky because the back of the case is not flat and the vent cutouts were placed explicitly to prevent mounting a standard power supply >:(
so I made a bracket and made the noise using scrap metal removed by the aforementioned dremel (there was a lot of it).
the specs are:
R7 5700, 5600xt, 48 ddr4, 3d printed stock cooler adapter and hole in front
debian kde
the noctua fans are in the mail
what do you want to see specifically? would you like me to share the model for the scoop?
I was trying to see a clearer view of this:
Did it come that way?
no i removed the blueray player and blanking plate. i modeled and printed an insert so it wasn't bare galvanized sheet steel. for now its just a hole the length of the 5.25" bays, but i am planning to design more deliberate ducting to feed the cpu fan.
