Hi Hemimax,
Thanks for the kind remarks.
All the wires is a bit of a bummer. Lots of small fiddly wires\connections in the back of my case to run the fans.
I am though getting the benefits of having the Noctua D15s and 8 case fans:
Yesterday I stressed the system a bit more running Cinebench 23 in both single and multi core mode and got Handbrake to encode a video (CPU running at 95 - 100% on all cores for 18 minutes).
Ambient temperature was 20 degrees Celsius. The minimum CPU temperature for Ryzen 5900x was 29 and the maximum during the video encode was 73 (all temps Celsius).

To get the hub\controller for the UNI Fans, it is included with both the 120mm three pack and 140mm two pack.
For anyone who wants find out more about these fans go here:
UNI FAN SL120 / SL140 - Daisychainable Fan (lian-li.com)
There is a setting in the Lian-LI software to allow control the fans via the BIOS (dependent on the make\model of motherboard of course).
Also I did a reasonable amount of research about setting up case fans (i.e. placement, positive vs negative flow etc.) as a result I'm using positive flow .
