(Needs a little dusting, I know) Custom length CableMod cables and my own custom SFF RTX 3060 Ti inspired by this post:

Stock cooler.
New heatsink.
My custom made CPU power cable. Not perfect, but I guess it's not bad for being my first go at this.
MI-6 Simplicity
GPU temps are quite manageable after a bit of undervolting and repasting with PTM7950, but I can't keep it from being fairly noisy under heavy loads.
Therefore, whenever I upgrade my GPU again, I'm looking to switch to a case with better compatibility.
Currently I have my eyes on the Midori 5L, but I'm not upgrading my GPU any time soon so I'm not pulling the trigger just yet.
As you can see from the pics, I've also delved into making my own cables. I'm still using that CPU power cable, but I haven't quite got around to actually putting the time into full custom cables. I found it quite satisfying to do once I got the hang of it, so maybe if I find myself with a bit of free time after I switch cases I'll consider doing it.
CPU: 5600x -> 5800x
Motherboard: ROG Strix X470 I -> Aorus Pro X570 I
GPU: 1070 -> 3060 Ti
Case Fan: NF-A9x14 -> NF-A9
Result of an unfortunate accident.

CPU Upgrade
Replaced 5800X with 5700X3D for better gaming performance.
