So im buying a used 4770k and z97 deluxe and am either painting the board or finding stuff to match. I decided I wanted the community to make the decision, and I cant decide. He is also giving me a 16 gb set of ddr3 2400 but i dont know what color it is (probably black). So if you want me to keep it gold and make a cool gold and black build, say gold. If you want me to change the color, say what color.

MSI Lightning video cards come to mind. It is not gold, but yellow is close enough. Newer DCUII Asus cards come with gold accent stickers as well as the red ones.

Gold spray paint heatsinks etc is a good start, if you're watercooling then gold fittings can be used.

My friend offered me that gold 980 that asus made a few months ago. He worked at a retailer called Tiger Direct. Wish i would have bought it then. They are super rare now. I found some gold cable extensions and I think I am going to spray paint some stuff gold.

I love my gold mobo. Lol. I have a gold and red theme. 

 Just because you don't care, doesn't mean other others don't. Don't be a self-centered asshole. -Thank You a PSA from the people who do not say random shit on the internet.

Graphics card is all people really see assuming you have a standard case. If you care for the SSD, the Adata SX900 has a black and gold look and the H100i has an RGB LED.
