Flow seems pretty normal still but the only thing I have to indicate that is the little indicator in the top right where the hose is connected.

Tip to anyone buying 4090 Aero Gigabyte

What about it?

Hello there, If you are buying 4090 from Gigabyte and it will be Aero - make sure to check your motherboard cables before you buy because their anti “sag bracket” is pretty large and it did not fit with my “Asus rog strix B650a gaming wifi” motherboard. Solution: cut it, spray paint it, install it

Get to finally use my welding skills for my PC build

What about it?

A very cheap case for 30 bucks. The sheet metal is literally catching the motherboard with the standoffsby only 2 mm. So in the pic my plan is to grind the rivets and drop said section down, clean powder coat, and tack the sheet metal (as it is not going to be structural). Then spray the ground areas with a slight coat of clear coat (for now). Then I will reassemble the PC. For any questions about specs, it is going to be a xeon w-3175x (ebay build, I spent about 2200 us dollars) for workstation. And yes, the board is atx and the case does "accept" atx, however the bolt holes align, just some case misalignment.
