Just got my S5M built tonight
Moved all my hardware from my Fractal Terra and with no instructions in the box it was still just about the challenge I expected. Not bad if you built a SFF PC in the past.
If you remove the top part, make sure you put it back on the way it came off because you’ll run into an issue where the panel doesn’t sit flush and you’ll have to switch it back
Besides that hiccup the build was great and I do expect better temps at least from my GPU with the blow through path that it can take now.
I’ll probably add more info if asked by the community if people are interested
Specs:
GPU: RTX 5080 FE
CPU: 9800x3d
RAM: 96GB DDR5 clocked at 6000mts
Storage: Samsung 9100 pro 2TB
MOBO: Asus ROG Strix X870-I
