Fractal TORRENT COMPACT simple gaming build (i5/3080)
I looked at a lot of builds and reviews of Fractal's Torrent Compact case, and it's worth the cable management woes.
I'm keeping it simple anyway -- No RGB, no glass, no SATA, just a gaming wind-tunnel with occasional editing, encoding, rendering...
Aiming for 1440p 144Hz+ for current and future gen (BR, fps, mmo, VR, demanding single-player...)
