When you go into a build without a plan...

Wanted to surprise a friend with a new PC as a housewarming gift. Used mostly parts I had bought and stockpiled on a whim with no idea what I was gonna do with it. Eventually, a build came together, but basically had no blueprint going in. Ended up using an air cooler in a chassis that is designed for water cooling. Case is the Raijintek Ophion M Evo SFF Micro-ATX Case and it's impossible to hide the cables in this because the entire chamber is visible through the glass. And to give an idea how little of a plan went into this: the PC was originally just going to use an EVGA 1050TI because that's what I had laying around as a spare, but eventually ended up with a MSI Ventus 2x OC 3070 inside.
