This build has been a labor of love and an extensive trial of patience. This particular case has no cable management to speak of, so I had to do my best with what I had in combination with my OCD.

You are looking at a Cougar Conquer case that has went through custom paint (Cougar, what is up with fascination with orange? At least offer some color substitutions.).

Within the case is the Aorus Z390 Master motherboard that has been set with an Intel I9 9900K, Aorus 32GB of DDR4 RGB RAM @ 3200MHz, and an Aorus GeForce RTX 2080 Xtreme Waterforce GPU.

It's all powered by an EVGA Supernova G3 850W PSU.

In terms of storage, we have the following:

Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVMe M.2 SSD @ 500GB in which the OS sits.
Western Digital Caviar Blue M.2 SSD @ 250GB.
Samsung 860 EV0 2.5 SATA SSD @ 1TB.

The cooling on the machine is fairly extensive. Primochill was the environment I choose to go with. There is a 360mm radiator on top with 6 fans from Cooler Master in a push pull configuration and there is 240mm radiator on the front 4 fans from Cooler Master also in a push pull configuration. The fans are the Master Cooler MasterFan Pro 120mm Air Pressure RGB fans providing static pressure. The waterblock for the CPU is an EX-Supremacy MX that has been custom modded for the plexi to display the Aorus Eagle. Tubing is PETG with an 1/2 inch outer diameter that has been formed repeatedly with much frustration (again the OCD, lol). Given the layout of the case and the placement of the reservoir, some of the PETG runs are fairly long and complex. The loop is as follows:

D5 Pump with 240mm Reservoir out into the 240mm RAD.
Out of the 240mm RAD into the GPU Block.
Out of the GPU into the 360mm RAD.
Out of the 360mm RAD into the CPU Block.
Out of the CPU Block into the D5 Pump/240mm Reservoir.

RGB lighting on the MB, RAM, GPU, CPU Waterblock, and Fans are all controlled through Gigabytes RGBFusion software. The RGB lighting on the Keyboard, mouse, and mousepad are controlled through Razers Synapse.
