Red Phoenix

I rebuilt my 9 yr olds computer. He had a Metallic Gear Neo Mini. I just was not happy with the case even though it was functional. I had a Thermaltake Core G3 laying around unopened and I had never even pulled it out of the box until a few weeks ago. I saw some potential and away I went. He original had my old eVGA 1080 ti FTW 3 with a hydro cooler. But it is a huge card for mini itx / sff kind of builds I normally do. So I sold it and bought a Zotac 2060 RTX card and a few other parts. I had to modify the front panel and fan brackets on the Core G3. I ended up having to use 35mm long mounting screws with a 1/4" spacer to allow the front panel to snap back on. So the front Deepcool 360ex aio worked pretty well. I went with it because it was the cheapest I could find. I thought of using the Fractal Designs S36 and it was only 10/15$ more but it worked out.
