I designed 3D printed components to mount my ITX + 3080 + SFX to an IKEA Skadis pegboard, so it can be wall-mounted behind my TV.

How is the noise with this setup? The CPU cooler looks undersized for the amount of space you have.

CPU fan can get noisy at full load. Could use a better cooler, this one is just what I already have and is okay so far

Hows the hotspot temp on the Gpu. I have a 7900xtx with the same cooler design and without airflow the backside gets super hot.

The backside can get hot. With my previous setup (before mounting it), the backside is facing up exposed to open air, but it’s still very hot at full load. There is no performance issue though. I guess it’s designed like this and it’s totally normal.
