Be it cable management, parts swapping etc (any suggestions are welcomed!)

 

And how much would you rate my rig out of 10? Taking performance and aesthetics into account

don't see any big things pretty much got everything every detail led strips (which i like) only thing i can see is a second fan on the cpu cooler?

Yes, you can definitely improve it.

I don't know how much to trust that RAM - 2x4GB and 2x2GB? I'd replace the 2x2 with another 2x4 for 16GB.

 

I'd rate it 7/10.

Hmmm but is that worth it? im using a locked i5 though!

Those are kingston rams

Hmmm what benefit would 16gb give over 12?

if you don't need 16gb don't do it but it can be handy i wouldn't do it do and the fan CAN lower your temps but probably not i just noticed it nothing else you can do it its cheap but isn't needed because you have a locked cpu

So my PC is pretty much there? How much would you rate it out of 10?

Sadly the x4 slot will bottleneck my 290x severely (due to the 290x not using the crossfire bridge D:)

Watercooling is not possible in my country without it being too expensive (After all im just a student without a part time job! )
