HELP!

Budget (including currency): $150 (Australian Dollars)

Country: Australia

Retailers I'll be shopping at: https://www.ple.com.au/ , https://www.austin.net.au/, https://www.amazon.com.au/

What for?

Hello there, I was wondering on what i should do to make my pc look aesthetically pleasing. I'm kinda on a budget and i was hoping to get some advice. Lately, I have been seeing some really aesthetically pleasing pc builds and like the way aio's looks, so if possible an AIO would be able to be in the budget. (My cpu and mobo are the ryzen 5 2600, asus prime 450-a if that matters) 

What My PC Looks Like Right Now:

Btw sorry for the bad image quality, didn't feel like opening the glass. Takes to much time.

The only correct answer here is adding another $150 worth of Looney Tunes merchandise

@AereldorLMAO, the only reason why i have so many looney toons figurines is because mcdonalds happy meal with a coke, fries and a burger costs the same of a single burger. Right now they are doing looney toons so i have so many now... But anyways please give advice, serious ones..

I'm serious, Looney tunes fuckin slaps. And a PC with stuff inside it is more interesting with boring harsh RGB lights that showcase dull ass circuit boards and plastic flanges.
 

Maybe put in some soft light to exhibit the figurines better. A good way to do that is to get an LED strip and hide it behind something so the bulbs aren't directly visible.

@AereldorThanks! I think i should just follow your advice by adding some strips and add an aio cause i like the look. I might even try getting a custom gpu backplate for my rtx 2060 super that is looney tune theme.

Careful, most AIOs are outperformed by cheaper air coolers. Custom backplate is tacky IMO, but the figurines are sick. For the strips I'd go with soft white/yellowish LEDs, somewhere between 2800k and 3500k in colour temperature. To avoid making it look too modern, fitting in with the theme.

@Aereldor Could you please link some specific strips? Kinda new to these rgb things, as you can see from my pc...

For the aio, i was thinking of making it like a yellow/red rgb colour (rgb fans on aio). Ik some may get outperformed but.. aesthetics.

Didn't mean RGB strips, I meant regular ass LED strips. 

These are incredible, but they're a tad expensive.

These are okay, and cheaper, but they take a while to ship
