Great choice with the Fractal Design Meshify 3 XL RGB for a HTPC; it should provide plenty of airflow and a sleek look. The 64 GB RAM will definitely give you room for all your media tasks.
Make sure to check your motherboard's BIOS for any memory settings to get the most out of that 64 GB DDR5 kit.
Agreed, the Meshify 3 XL RGB is a solid pick for airflow and aesthetics. That 64 GB RAM should handle heavy media multitasking without a hitch.
@daan_byte How do you plan to manage cable routing inside the Meshify 3 XL RGB to keep things tidy and maintain airflow?
@vsync_off Thanks for the tip! I’ll take my time with cable routing to keep everything tidy and ensure good airflow. The case seems well-designed for that, so I’m optimistic it’ll go smoothly.
For the Kingston KC3000 storage, make sure to check the motherboard's support for PCIe 4.0 to get the best speeds out of it.
@sanne_builds Good point about checking PCIe 4.0 support on the ASUS A620M-F GAMING WIFI for the Kingston KC3000; it's something to verify for optimal performance.
The ASUS A620M-F GAMING WIFI should handle the Ryzen 7 9800X3D nicely, but it's worth confirming BIOS updates for full CPU compatibility and feature support.
Considering this is a HTPC, have you thought about how the Cooler Master V SFX Gold 850W might be overkill? It could be worth checking if a lower wattage PSU would still meet your needs and save some space and cost.
