After moving my parts over, moved to an RX 5700 XT and 9820X.  No more PCIe lane issues.  Using a Phanteks 1000w Revolt X PSU.  Main system is an EVGA X299 FTW K and secondary is a X570 TB3 with 2600X.  Custom parts in the case.  I have my own X299 FTW K VRM block that I will use to cool the VRM on my board.  Tons of pictures to come! Switch to a 30" curved monitor at 200Hz 2560x1080p.  New blocks and more!
 

Should be a fun build.
 
I just transferred my rig from a Phanteks Luxe Tempered Glass into a Phanteks Luxe 2 (Enthoo 719) about 10 days ago. Was a little disappoint with the top radiator support - I have a 420mm in the front, a 240mm in the bottom and a 240mm in the top. Reviews have noted that the bottom rad width is a bit tight (i.e. an EK SE 240 @120mm wide will fit but the EK PE 240 @130mm wide won't) but nothing was mentioned about the top radiator support. I had to dremel a few of the locating lugs off the top panel to get it to fit as the rad protruded about 4mm past the locating holes in the top of the chassis. Looking online, it appears that most other radiator brands (Corsair/Hardware Labs/etc.) are around the 120mm range in width, it looks like it's just EK's PE & XE series that are too wide.
 
One other point to note is if you want to use the mechanical drive cages in the bottom of the case with a 240mm radiator (which you can't do if you are building a dual system), it'll fit but it's a tight squeeze to get 'em cabled up with the bottom radiator butting up rather close to the drive cage area.

System is already made, using a 480 GTS with fans exhausting the heat, works very well, able to cool a 9820X and RX 5700XT and they stay very cool.  Coolant temp is around 35C on load.  I would never use an EK SE they have garbage performance, GTS is much better, while restrictive, the cooling makes up for it.  Thanks for the tips.

The pictures do look great

Thank you, certainly not as good as some of the photos I see on here that others takeWill have an update soon.

Got the Nu Pro kit, nice piece of kit, one thing I noticed is the 7.1 virtual card does not show up in the BIOS as a 1X device and seems to be missing pins intentionally on the PCIe finger.
 

 

Nice to see Heatkillers installed
How are the Next D5 pumps? Was also looking at them but they ain't cheap.
Coming along quicker than mine.
