The Purple People Eater
Using this for gaming. High load scenarios are newer games on max settings and playing 8 EVE online clients at once. So far has handled perfectly.
I would have gotten a 3080 if I could have but with all the stock problems I don't regret my purchase of my 3090.
Notes about the case. -EDIT: I had a comment here about air being pulled down from the top of the distroplate but I was able to fix it by tipping the case on its side and filling the top right corner again and again until the return line was completely submerged.
-The space behind the motherboard is very small for cable management. I went with 6 TT quad riing fans in a push/pull config, performance wise they work great but having extra rgb cables ended up taking up a ton of room. I switched from using a 6tb hdd to a 4tb ssd just to make it fit.
-Thermaltake's RGB software is a pain in the *** to get set up. I have to run it every time i start up the computer. It takes like 5 seconds to refresh my settings but still a hassle. The Gskill rgb software doesn't have as many options but it's easy to use. Same with the MSI software.

If you have any questions about the case that wasn't answered in the videos just leave a comment on youtube, that goes straight to my phone. It seems like they didn't send this case out to any of the tech youtubers so there isn't a ton of great info out there.
