Finally got to build a modern computer for myself rather than for others. I had originally planned on just going as black as possible and adding a strip of RGB LEDs for lighting(i7 6700, 8gb, msi procarbon)...but, I got into a pissing contest of specs with my friend having to one up him and I ended up with a a rather "lit" appearance in doing so. Its nothing spectacular, though I was previously using a core duo with 2gb ram and 250gb hdd. It took me a few months to get everything and get it running, but I have about $1500 or so in it counting additonal fans, cables, and led strips

I7 7700k at just over 4.9ghz for the sake of keeping temps safe, though I was running stable at 5.3 with dangerous\concerning temps

And yes I'm aware the CPU power cable running overtop of the board is abit cringe worthy, but the case is large and the cable wouldn't reach when routed around the back. I have ordered an extension, but it hasnt cause any issues and its secure, so I may not even bother correcting it until I have additonal reason to tear back into it.
