Running in the 90s

WIP
My first retro sleeper build. Based on an old Fujitsu Siemens PC from 2000 I want to retain as much of its appearance as possible. Because I am on a limited budget most of the parts were bought used.
The case is mATX-sized and supports only SFX PSUs. The biggest challenge with this build will be airflow as the case without modifications only allows for a single 80mm case fan.
Most parts are ordered now and I am waiting for them to arrive so I can complete this project.
Color(s): White
RGB Lighting? No
Theme: Retro
Cooling: Air Cooling
Size: Micro-ATX
Type: General Build

Build Updates

Replaced the motherboard because I couldn't get the one I planned originally.

installed HyperX Savage 240GB SSD and Arctic F8 PWM case fan.
