As usual all photos get copied here so you don't have to wade through the whole swamp.
Case with Motherboard, PSU, CPU, HDD, SSD, in about an hour's work.
From the bottom with some cable management. It's great that the bottom panel is removable on the V21.
and from the top. Bit we forgot to pit in the Fan baseplate, so out it all came 🙁
The CPU cooler is the CRYORIG H7. I prefer coolers like the RAIJINTEK Pallas or Noctua NH D15S where the CPU cooler can be removed from the CPU without having to remove the whole motherboard.
Well packaged and good looking. Spare fan clips for a second fan.
Thermal paste. Comes with cooler and looks a lot like Noctua OEM.
More details of the mounting. The X brace is on the bottom of the radiator.
Installed!
Clearance with Trident X memory installed.
