I would like~

- water cooling [not a custom loop]

- an SSD to boot windows off of

- I want a red and black theme to the build

- a nice case [red] with nice airflow and good cable manegment maybe some LED lighting for a bit of bling 

- a nice graphics card 

 

thats pretty much it 

i would love for your help
