I had to decide today which case design for this CAD/CAM workstation ; either 4U case or Full ATX

That was a challenge, yet the CAD/CAM video card and hard drive expansion needs worked out to be a 4U case.

I definitely needed the space inside. I did adjust the fan cooling and took out one case fan and increased the size and added it over the motherboard to give the vm and firmware extra cooling air flow.

We still dropped in a 500 or 750W PSU, yet then again, we'll see. the 30" CAD/CAM designed monitor is sick.
