One of the parcels came in earlier than expected. I was able to make progress on my custom cables.
I also picked out fans for my build. Went with the ultimate 120mm fans. Phanteks T30s. (added something special to the front of them, will reveal in future post)
Also the fan cable management bracket from the HL15 fits the spacing on my many many years old storage pod. I had no doubts, but its nice to note that the early engineering that they put into the design is still seen from past to present.
Edit
Totally off topic, my rgb controller came in. +10 to cooling performance
Edit
Slow work day, I’m still waiting on a delivery from aliexpress so I can crimp some power cables. I wanted to see how everything were going to be laid out so I finally jumped at mounting the rest of the cables with the plates. Definitely the most challenging cable management I’ve ever done and its only half way there. I’m beginning to think I should have gone the solder route now too. But we shall see.
I also decided to return the T30s and went with NF-F12 iPPC-2000 IP67. They were on sale on amazon so why not. I still have the phanteks rbg frames at the front.
