Advice for all white PC

[BakkenVouwen]

After a few years of working with a single laptop it's finally time to upgrade to a desktop PC. I'm looking for a good looking (mostly) white build, and yes with RGB. I've created a partslist of what i think is good. Im looking for some advice and suggestions since this will be my first PC build and have no experience so far. I'm not in a rush to finish the build so there is some time to let the prices get closer to MSRP (if they ever will). At last i tried to match the fans with the cooler to get a cleaner finished look but i'm not sure if that even matters. Thanks in advance.

 

Budget (including currency): 

€2500,- Euro maximum

 

Country:

Netherlands

 

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: 

Variety of games (Apex Legends, GTA V, Terraria, Minecraft). I also run a lot of virtual machines and/or docker containers for developing in combination with Adobe XD + Photoshop for designs.

 

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

Current setup:

- Acer Aspire  V17 Nitro laptop

- CalDigit TS3 Plus Docking station

- iiyama PL3461WQ ultrawide, 3440x1440, 144hz

- Keychron K1 keyboard

- Some Logitech mouse

Changed storage to a single 2tb drive. Speed doesn't matter and a 980pro is not better than a 860 evo for gaming or any of your use cases normally.

 

Upped the psu to the 850w unit as you will need that due to power spikes

 

Changed board for something cheaper as well the strix does nothing that you need that the msi doesn't already do.

 

So pretty much upgraded some parts that will matter whilst keeping the price the same.

 

As for that 3080 good luck you will basically not be able to buy it anywhere or ever again as this was a niche product and they already cannot keep up making normal ones.

Maybe add a Strix B550-A?

Could also do if they want the accents. It is not a better board tho and seems to be a bit lower end than the msi one.

Seems like a some good alternatives. Motherboard was the hardest part for me to pick because there are so many (slightly) different options so im glad for your help. As for the GPU i was already thinking about downgrading to a 3070 since it will probably suffice for my needs and is cheaper as well
