Been all over the place trying to figure out a new build. Originally wanted to go with a Ncase M2 or M3 but have moved away from that for now. My concerns are the cooling capabilities of the M series for the components I’ll be using.

The A3 and D32 seem to be the top contenders. I was trying to build as small of a PC as I could, so leaning towards the D32 but am curious of others thoughts who have done similar builds.

Planning to do a 9800x3D/5090 build. I’ve seen builds on here of both AIO and air cooler configs, and am wondering if those on here that have this CPU could give insight on temps with either. I prefer air cooling but because this will be the smallest build I’ve done yet, I’m not sure if AIO is necessary to keep sub 80 temps.

Any thoughts would be appreciated!
