I still plan on ordering an LED strip for the interior to match the exterior, I also am going to buy custom white cables from CableMod in the upcoming week.

Green LED's 

It's more of a black and white build, however I can change the color thanks to the luxe, I personally really like it's overwarm white, its almost orange.

I have an idea for a name. #shouldaspentatleast300onacamerainsteadofX99

 

Either way, looks shmexy.

 I already have free access to all of the cameras I could want, and the price difference between x99 and z97 was actually only about $100. I do a lot of content creation so I can justify the money for two more cores.

Green LED's 

Personally I think green on the interior would look nice with how it looks now

but yeah, for a white black build just go for a couple of white leds, not too much because you don't want your case to be a light bulb

Ah neato. Maybe take some pics with a fancy camera to show this bad boy off?

I plan to once I get the custom cables, the LEDS, and a backplate for the GPU

I am going to use the Luxe's built in LED controller with RGB LED's so I can do anything.

im going to be doing a similar build to yours just asking a few questiong. how is the titan x with that monitor also how loud is the gpu? what is this build being used for? and how do you like that ram? im mostly stuck on sorting out ram, stuck between 16gb and 32gb for editing, server hosting at lans and bunch of other stuff

The GPU is really quiet. I haven't overclocked it, however it still turbo's up to 1.5ghz and I only hear it when it is running at a high load. The ram is nice, however I did get one dead stick, not the end of the world though. This PC is audible on my desk, but as soon as I have any other audio playing, be it through my speakers or through headphones, I immediately forget it's there. The titan X plays just fine with the monitor, I have been gaming at 4k without issue. I would definitely recommend 4 sticks to make 32gb that way if you ever want to upgrade you only have to buy 4 more sticks rather than buying 8 more sticks.

cheers man, I was worried that the titan x would be loud due to what people have been saying about it, and my build will be going in the r5, I'm not to worried about the one dead stick as that would mostly be due to bad luck imo, I'll be wearing headphones most of the time (open backs) so I didn't want it to be too loud

I promise you won't hear a thing as soon as you start playing music. The heating vents in my house are louder than it.
