You don't see the insides of my PC, it's almost against the wall, so I absolutely don't care about the looks. The case had to be "quite" compact, as I put it on a shelf next to my subwoofer, and this Gungnir case just fits, anything slightly bigger would not.

This PC was already 4.000€, that was my limit sorts off, it was even a bit lower before, as I wanted to get a 3080 and not a 3090, but due to permanent unavailability, I had to change, so it was already 1.000€ more expensive than initially planned. And to be honest, I never even considered installing any water cooling system, never had one, never needed one.

Plus the Noctua keeps temperature very low, don't need 10 degrees on my CPU, only to post a picture to say "hey guys look, I have the best cooling system, had to spend 500€, but now my CPU is at 10 degrees all the time, even when playing Cyberpunk in 8K".
