Hey everyone, I’m looking into getting a FormD T1 case, but I’ve come across both the v2.1 and v2.5 versions and I’m a bit confused about the differences.
From what I understand, there have been some revisions, but I’m not sure how significant they are in terms of: compatibility (GPUs, cooling, etc.) build quality / design changes thermals and airflow. Overall ease of building. Is v2.5 just a minor refresh, or is it actually worth choosing over v2.1?
Would really appreciate input from anyone who has used either (or both).
Thanks!

Hello! I have 2 very simple questions regarding a future build of mine, in FormD T1.
I'll be using a 9800x3d CPU paired with an RTX 5080. First question is, which 5080 do you guys recommend me to use? I've been looking at the MSI Ventus 3x for now, and it seems like a good fit, though I can't figure out if it's a 2.5 slot or a 2.75 slot. Second question is, is a cooler like the Noctua L12 Ghost or APX90 really enough to cool a 9800x3d from the factory? Or do I need to do some undervolting, etc.?
Thanks in advance!
