CPU Update
I'm starting to buy the parts and found the CPU difficult to find. The pricing I got was from a vendor that had super low ratings. I had not checked that previously.

Overall the "T" series processors, which have a 35W total dissipated power (TDP), are the best match to make the whole passive cooling thing work well. The non-suffixed processors (like i7-8700) have a TDP of 65W can also work with the passive CPU cooling. Both are on back order right now. The over-clocker series, with a K suffix, are easiest to get but have a TDP of 95W. These will NOT work with a passive CPU cooler.

I changed the processor to an 8th gen i7-8700T. Still it's back ordered until Feb 26, 2020. 2/26 Update - STILL back ordered. Apparently there's a worldwide Intel chip shortage Mad . More updates as I get them. Stay tuned.
