How would this look?

Hi guys so I want to get these parts for my first rig:

 

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/RZ6Cgs

 
I really like this case and I like the window as I would like to show off my components however the motherboard is brown... How noticeable do you guys think this will be through the tinted window in Arc mini r2 and how much of the brown PCB will be covered by the fairly large cooler and graphics card? Thanks for the help!

Budget and link us to the store.

 

I live in South Africa and there is not many other motherboards with overclocking capabilities here with a more pleasing colour scheme. Here is the sight I want to get most of my parts from. Just divide the currency by around ten to get dollars. http://www.takealot.com/computers/computer-components-10066. My budget is around 750$

Thanks for the help but as I said earlier I live in South Africa and shipping from amazon to here is expensive so I have to use a local site: http://www.takealot.com/computers/computer-components-10066 (divide by ten for dollars)
