Code Name: Chameleon *UPDATE*

So here is an update on my build. The white cables from EVGA came in (finally). I also was to explain why I named this build Chameleon. I wanted most of the case and things to be black, so they don't reflect much light. The major components are white to reflect as much light as possible from the LED's. The point of this was to allow me to change the entire color scheme of the PC with software. If I were to build a red or blue PC, I would be stuck with those colors until I replaced them. So here is the build:

 

Before I had red cables going to the graphics card:

And now I have white cables everywhere:

And here are some other colors and the reasoning behind the name:

Sorry the camera isn't good :( MY HTC One M9 has a horrible camera. So what do you think? Were the white cables a good choice? Or should I have stuck with the red cables?

The white cables make the build adapt really well. I like them way more than the red cables.
