@N7SpecOps You are welcome!
Always happy to help.
English isn't my natural language so I hope I explained it correctly.
If you want to be sure I explained it correctly, you can send the after pic so I can check out if we understood each other correctly.
@SteffanPatrik No, don’t be sorry, I’m grateful for the advice! I will get it swapped around so everything is the way it should be 😃 Thank you so much for the instruction!
Headset holders? I never saw a version of this case that would come with any holder (only 3,5 Jack splitter cable). Might be a special one? In any case, I saw people having mounted something on the front panel of the case for headphones, but I thought it always had to be bought separetely bc I never saw it come with the case.
I just searched for it, and the only thing I found is this thing, which was sold only separately:

Is it what you had in mind?
The mounting problem with the cooler is that your friend mounted the fans on the water-cooler radiator the wrong way around. Right now, your PC has airflow where in front it pushes the air out, and the fan on the back of the case is doing the same. You need to have the fans on the radiator so that they pull air IN the case, not out.
Airflow in a case in front must always take air in. (Front and bottom always take air IN while the top and back always push air OUT.
Right now, your cooler is inhaling hot air from the case in the radiator instead of taking cool air in. Your cooling is now compromised.
The correction is simply, just mount the 2 fans on the cooler the other way around
(yes, the RGB of the fans will look worse - thats why they are normaly mounted in front of the radiator and not behind it, but in this case where you dont have see-through front panel, you wouldnt see anything from the RGB fans so that's why they are behind the radiator - this way you at least see something)
Also, the Water pump on the CPU has the hoses on the bottom side. Still OK technicaly nothing worng with that but it is supposed to be the hoses on the right so that even the Cooler master logo of the cooler is the proper way - in short the pump is 90 degress turned of, but as I said, it doesnt do anything bad technically it's just weird looking🙂
Yeah, his cable management is basically just connecting the cables from point A to point B😀. If they were behind the case and not the front at least. This way, they also affect the airflow, but just very little.
Sorry for this long reply😅
@SteffanPatrik Thanks! I’m so excited to have it! You don’t happen to know where to get one of the headset holders that came with it, do you? Unfortunately, that wasn’t part of the deal 😭
I had a friend help me put it together, he did say his cable management wasn’t his best work lol 😂
Wow, why did I never realise that strip on the NZXT case could be done like that!?! I built hundreds of them😅
Greatly done, LOVE IT😍
And you have Mark Meer's signatures?! Now I'm jealous😀
Also, if you don't mind me asking, you bought the PC like that, or you built it yourself? You have a few things wrong with the water cooler (mounted-wise) + the cable management could be done better, and in the back of the case🙂
