Probably the most nerve racking experience of my life.. It kept not cutting on during the build, giving me memory error/cpu error codes on the Motherboard (MSI Z270 M5), but I updated the bios and it fixed that, it was also intermittently not turning on throughout adding pieces to the build, but I believe that was the outdated bios also.. All in all a great learning experience

Only current issue is the case fan in the rear won't cut on/cuts off after putting that side case panel on, connector was plugged in.. Maybe try a different fan plug, or use one directly on the motherboard

Very nice. Motivates to get my build going. These paychecks take too long to show up though. Haha.
