Maxing out the Cooler Master Cosmos Alpha
Finally managed to move my case over from my previous build in a Be Quiet! Shadow Base 800 with my second GPU in an external enclosure. The riser cable setup I had with that wasn't good enough. The 2nd GPU is still connected with a riser cable, but it's a normal one and hasn't had any issues.
Pretty happy overall, but a bit unfortunate that the Cosmos Alpha is so "thin" when it matters - I am unable to close the glass panel. If I moved the AIO radiator to the outside of the bracket, I wouldn't be able to close the rear panel instead.
The cable management was a nightmare because of all the additional cables, especially the front panel connections with the multiple wireviews, kvm, and additional power button.
