Pretty sure this was not the smartest thing to do, but I needed to get the PC set up and Windows installed. It was a super temporary setup that was quite risky. Now that everything is done, I have it unplugged and waiting for a new PSU that will hopefully fit properly! ...otherwise I'm going to have to try and find one that is set up for a bottom of the case mount. The CPU power plug cables are a bit too short to reach the power pins way at the top of the motherboard

It was also probably not a smart idea to set this all up on not a lot of sleep after a very long work day. Fuck am I tired. Ah well, tomorrow morning...
Fuck, it's already tomorrow. Uh... after I get a decent amount of sleep I'll retackle this thing and get all the cables set up nice and pretty and waiting for the new PSU and GPU
