      I don’t see any wood on that. Personally I had bad experiences with TT’s quality too, but that was admittedly a long time ago with the Shark.

        Yeah I just meant for 200mm front fan airflow, plus all the fan options on top, sides back. But for wood I would grab a System76 Thelio.

                I’m not American, but system76 is an opensource company and actually builds a very good products and their own OS. I would choose USA built also because I’m Canadian and reduces chinese components and possible slave labour. Not sure why you care so much about my choice. lol

                  It just sounds very weird for non Americans to value “made in US” labels so much. America doesn’t actually have that kind of product reputation, except for maybe fighter jets.

                    They don’t have to have a reputation, some people just want to support more locally made or sourced products than relying on China as the worlds factory for too many reasons to list. System76 has been building PoP!OS with good gaming and hardware support, they have also spent a lot of time doing proper airflow analysis, so maximize airflow without over revving the fans, and as somebody who values opensource as well as they have been sourcing all their hardware designs so if you wanted to take their CAD files you could build your own case , keyboard, etc you could
