I have posted a much shorter build guide now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivMawWusdZI

Building my black FormD T1 2.0 Sandwich with 4.0 riser case.
I purposely went in without spending too much time looking at the (draft) build guide.

There is a very active FormD community in the SFF Gurus Discord: https://discord.gg/vYbVGUhchx
FormD's website: https://formdworks.com/password

Some thoughts for the first build, will be testing more stuff!
- The power passthrough thing can be mounted from within the case
- Sometimes things get in the way for cable management, you can remove the rear panel with just 4 screws (2 side struts, top strut, and slot selector screw)
- For 2 slot GPU mode, you want hole #3 counting from the GPU side. The GPU bracket has 2 holes to accomplish the .25 slot steps, so check that you use the right one.
- The barcode is on the CPU side, GPU side is the opposite from that.
- For an AIO build, I recommend using the maximum possible GPU spacing. That way you'll have a little more room for exhaust via the rear of the case.
- Try to dry mount your AIO first without any fixtures to figure out which fans go were/how you will route your tubes.
- To mount the AIO you'll want to use the small (half the length of the case) fan brackets.
- For an AIO with the the fans between motherboard and radiator, you'll want to mount it radiator - slim fan - fan bracket
