Oh boi, nice build there :- )
Does Aorus Xtreme fit in Define S2 (or R6)? I am not that sure, it's XL-ATX, 4cm taller (in bottom part) than ATX( or E-ATX which are wider instead).
Any particular reason for NF-A12x25 fans as case fans in mid-tower that fits 140mm fans ? They are the best fans on market, in 120mm size. But if your case fits 140..it's still better to go with 140s. I used NF-A12x25 for my small Define-C build which only fits 120mm fans.
(on other hand, with radiators it doesn't matter, 2x140 is the same as 3x120, just like 3x140 is the same as 4x120).
Good choice with the blower GPU. Yeah they get bad rep but with good case air flow they don't throttle, and the CPU+Memory+VRM is much better off.
Since you got such a fast memory, can you do a test please? You will probably get it running just fine at 3600/CL16 if you only populate 4 dimm slots.
But can you test which one is faster in Corona, the stock 3600/16 vs 3200/14 settings when manually input ? Just to see what makes Corona truly faster, the increased Infinity-fabric or the overall lowered latency from memory.
I can't wait for CES news to come. Really wonder what they gonna show about 3980X/3990X Threadrippers.
The BenQ PD3200U is my favorite mostly because it's the most high-end sRGB only display. Every other is wide-gamut, which just sucks for us because Corona/3dsMax lacks any sort of color-management.
I want the Apple XDR display so much heh. I hate the IPS glow, the shitty backlighting, the matte foil... even the 4K & 32" is not sharp at all to my liking anymore.
