get OS from reddit for $20-30.

1) Buy a black and blue case (black with blue led fans or whatever suits you better) so you can save lots of money on fans.

2) I would get a cheaper mobo, Im sure that there are 100-120$ mobos which would suit you better since you are getting a locked cpu.

3) a RX 480 for a 1800$ buged ? Nope. Get a 1070 or a 1080 and a higher refresh monitor

4) Since Im suggesting you to get a 1070/80, you should get a 600W psu (any GQ, B2 from EVGA will do a great job, dont go on the cheap in the psu, thats never a good idea. You can also check the LTT tier list)

5) You should really dig some more out there my friend! good luck!

Here you go, just set all the rgb to blue and you're good to go.  Use the extra rgb fans for the radiator and the back of the case.
