Here are the latest pics of my Alienware Area-51 R2 build.

Specs:

CPU: Intel Core i9 12900k

Mobo: MSI MPG Z690 Carbon Wifi

GPUAorus master 3080ti

64GB DDR5 RAM 5200 MT/s

PSU: Corsair RM1000X

Storage: Samsung m.2 990 Pro 2TB + Samsung SSD 870 4TB

CPU cooler: Corsair icue link titan 360 RX LCD

The 3 120mm fans blow air through the radiator outside the front of the case. I have 1 corsair RX fan mounted at the back as exhaust.

We all know this Area-51 R2 case is not good for airflow, but my idle CPU temp is around 30C and under gaming (Cyberpunk) gets around 70C. GPU idle 30C and under full load around 75C.

I cut the side panel to fit a plexi window. I cut the front of the case to be able to fit the 360mm AIO.
