Thanks friend. Can’t wait until it all arrives!Nope - your PCIe power cables that come with the PSU will be plenty.

Hey @blouse, what BIOS version are you running? I have nearly the exact same setup (and everything works great, even got Thunderbolt working) but I can’t get the headless IGPU to work. Whenever I enable IGPU in the BIOS, it hangs during boot.
I’ve tried about everything I can figure to do, so wondering if it is a BIOS issue.
Thanks @MESwan. Sadly I've tried those exact BIOS settings, and the issue persists. What version of BIOS are you on?
Do you have your rad fans plugged into CPU_FAN and CPU_OPT, and your pump into SYS_FAN5_PUMP? I’m not fully sure where to connect the pump and fans, too, for optimal power delivery and safety. This is an excellent case by the way, especially for the price— you did a great job selecting these components!blouse's "Hack Pro (Late 2018)" build:

I can't speak for blouse, but I, personally, have my pump plugged into CPU_FAN, and the rad fans into the pump splitter in the back. The additional case fans on other fan headers. My Krakenx52's base profile is quite good, so the default curves serve me well in macOS, even overclocked to 5.1GHz on all 8 cores. If you want more control, the RAD fans can be plugged into additional headers on the Mobo, giving you better curves set in BIOS. My Kraken ignores BIOS fan curves completely, so I am grateful the default curves work well in macOS. I suspect this has something to do with macOS utilizing the PStates of the 9900k much better than Windows does.
