I've called this build Incarnation because...
- It consists of allmost all the hardware I had in my previous ATX build (Fractal Design Define R4)
- It consists of the left over parts after staying on the floor of our basement at the time of the spring flood deciding to make it's way through our basement 😥
I previously had a Seasonic FOCUS+ 750W Gold installed, but that was a little longer (14cm) and a little higher (8,6cm), so it didn't fly well with the GPU (2080 Ti). It didn't get enough air.
Changing to a cute and tiny Corsair SF750 (10x6,3cm) really did wonders for this build!
One thing to have in mind though... The SF750 is not only tiny, it has tiny cabling as well. I had to buy 24-pin and 4+4-pin EPS Cablemod extensions to be able to reach the motherboard through the back plate with the GPU installed. Also making room for the very bulky connector between the PSU 24-pin cable and the extension cable in the back was also a project of its own - Phew!
I will change the PSU+Extension-setup for custom length Cablemod cables "in the future", but I wanted this system up and running quickly, so it had to be this way for now. Also, the custom cables is a bit expensive efter having spent 2200 SEK on PSU + extensions.
I have been waiting for a 3080 for 8 months and now it has finally arrived, so... No my system is as I want it to be 😄
Only thing left now is the Cablemod cables and maybe a GPU-support. It is a very heavy card!!
I'm happy with the 3D Mark results even if the result with undervolting is 200 points less than default

Running at 62C means low noise which is so nice. From 41.1dB down to 37dB makes quite a difference 😁
