Chris, 

The build looks amazing. Certainly should run everything you throw at it without doubt. 
 

But . . .  It seems to resist all the accumulated wisdom concerning server  and audio PC builds on your wonderful site. 
 

In my experience and many others running ROON or RoonServer on the same pc as HQPlayer is a solid no. Better to split them up in two PCs. 
 

I’ve not seen anyone recommending liquid cooled builds cool as it is and looks. 
 

Power supplies are critical to hood sound. Why not try a couple of large custom built linear power supplies or a couple of the 400 watt Hdplex and their converters. 
 

Again an amazing build that you should be proud of 

 

but how well does it play music?
