I'm in 2 minds if to just remove those USB and LAN, do I even need them ?

I would suggest keeping at least one USB port. You may find it useful when installing software, to connect a USB keyboard and mouse

I would assume I would still need the riser if keeping one of the ports because of the height ?

I thought you were going to use an H5? In which case, I think leaving the furthest USB port stack might clear everything

As it's a Pi 4 you'll need a heatsink on the CPU and chipset chips with some sort of fan.

ah, wish someone had mentioned that before I did the order.

I don't use a fan, however, my Pi stands vertically.
There aren't many of us using PiStorm to be fair, and every setup seems to be different, meaning there is no defacto setup.

I will have a look when I get the other board see how it all fits together.
