NCase M1 build guide -- B550, Ryzen 2600 & RTX 3070 FE

This is my 2nd PC build, and first with SFF case and discrete GPU. I started buying parts as early as March 2020, but with Covid it has been difficult to get all the parts - particularly CPU and GPU towards the end of the year.

I hope that beginners will find this guide useful - please feel free to leave any feedback!

This build contains the following parts:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-U9S
Motherboard: Asus ROG STRIX B550-I GAMING Mini ITX
Memory: Crucial Ballistix 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3600 CL16
Storage: Western Digital Blue SN550 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME SSD
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 8 GB Founders Edition
Case: NCASE M1 V6.1
Power Supply: Corsair SF750 80+ Platinum
Case Fans: Noctua A12x25 x3
Monitor: AOC 24G2U/BK 1080p 144 Hz

Future videos planned to look at RTX 3070 performance in this case, compared to my temporary 1060 3GB. I also should get an RTX 3080 soon, so stay tuned for that!
