Liquid Cooling
Liquid cooling systems utilize the thermally conductive properties of water to move heat away from the CPU chip and into a radiator. Unlike air coolers, liquid cooling systems are highly customizable and upgradable, allowing radiators to be added and the entire area of the case to be fully utilized.
Performance Fans
Unsurprisingly, fans, and fan choice play a pivotal role in temperature management. When every percent counts, these fans place top of the leaderboard in acoustics and air displacement.
RGB Fans
Who cares about performance when you have RGB! These fans are equipped with smooth LEDs, giving off a brilliant glow. Though their performance might falter, giving off barely any airflow and causing temperatures to increase, they have RGB!
Intel Core i5
The Intel 12th gen i5 12400k is a efficient little chip, packing a big punch at small power levels. With a rated TDP of 65 watts, its able to compete with the most recent flagship CPUs in computational power, while fighting off lower end CPUs in terms of TDP and cost efficiency.
Intel Core i9
The Intel i9 12900k is a colossal cpu, dealing massive computing performance with an enormous TDP of 125 watts. Safe to say it is not a very cool chip, requiring large equally mammoth CPU coolers or expansive liquid cooling systems.
ASUS ROG Strix 3060TI
The ASUS ROG Strix 3060TI boasts a massive cooler and plenty of rgb. Dont let its size fool you though, it contains the same GPU chip as the compact ASUS dual 3060TI, just with a much larger heatsink. With a length of 12.5 inches and a triple slot thickness, it exceeds the gpu space of smaller cases.
ASUS Dual 3060TI
The ASUS Dual 3060TI is a compact card with plenty of computing power. It lays on the smaller side, as far as heatsinks go, but has the perfect amount for its efficient GPU chip, keeping it at an acceptable temperature while it pushes above its weight class.

Custom Cables
Look at those clean cable bends and swooping curves! Aren't they just satisfying! In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, tight, well managed cables provide an aerodynamic air path, leading to cooler temperatures.
Unorganized Cables
Despite calling these cables messy, they could actually be a lot worse. Generally speaking, and for the sake of argument, we can say that this is some messy wiring. The stray, unkempt wires detract from the overall clean look, and block up the ventilation areas towards the bottom of the case.
Tempered Glass
Similar to the RGB lights, tempered glass side panels have a stunning visual effect, offering view into the PC unavailiable with solid, or mesh materials. This design choice comes at a cost, heavily impacting airflow.
