Build for 1440p gaming, any changes?

Coolio_Ash

This is my part list. I want it to have good frames for a variety of games at 1440p, and I wanted a white/rgb aquamarine/turquoise color scheme. My budget is $2500. I was wondering if you guys see any potential problems with the build, with the rgb stuff (this is my first time doing anything with lighting), or compatibility issues. I need a new 1440p monitor, and I was looking around for a 1440p/hdr/gsync/above 100 hz refresh rate one, the one on the list seemed to be the best I could find. I want to emphasize the color scheme, that's a really important part to me.

Don't worry that is a fairly common mistake to make.

If you are spending that much money and really care about RGB, I would buy the same brand gpu as motherboard.

At the moment you would need two different rgb programs, one from MSI, and one from Asus.

I know, first world problems, but it can be annoying.

Usually parts have things like "Aura" or "Mytic" rgb compatibility logos on them to show what software supports it.

Edit: you also need corsair software to control the AIO cooler rgb.

Seems alright though you could save some money if you went for less RGB but to be honest if you really want it than go for it.

Heres a similar system for 2303$ (without the monitor)
