So I am planning on Finally building My first PC after building up enough courage and research on the steps. I have already made a list but i dont feel its that good and id like to see other peoples suggestions/veiws.

 

INFO:

*I am aiming for a white themed build, so keep it as close to it as possible

*I already have the peripherals so that isnt needed

*Budget is $1200

*Will be used for school work, gaming and some graphic design

 

This is Basically my first time posting on these forums so please dont get angry if I didnt do something correctly

 

So I guess you can post links to lists or suggest parts.....?? Im still confused on this

I'd say i7-6700K, your favorite GTX 1070, maybe NZXT H440 or Noctis 450. Pick a decent Mobo from Asus, MSI or Gigabyte, they should be pretty good. 240GB boot ssd and maybe 2-3tb hdd. CoolerMaster 212 EVO cooler. Anything else...?

I believe this is what you want :)

 

On top of the white, I added a blue LED CPU Cooler (it's there for its performance, but it works with the build) and white RAM.
