Kinda going a bit for an RGB build. RGB is really just an extra, as i dont really need it, However i would like my system to look nice. 
Any thing i should know or do better? 
I do play a couple of games competitive, so high FPS is kinda a big deal. The more the better. I do also play alot of AAA titles aswell. 
My budget is around 3500 USD at max.

Nice build. The only things I would change/add are:

1. If you're planning for an RGB build, but some strips. I think CableMod has some good ones.

2. Buy some custom sleeved cables, they'll make the build look better IMO.

3. Get a WD Black instead of the Seagate drive.

1. I might do that.
2. Any tip of what colors i should go for? Black and white maby. Or plain white? As it reflecs the colors.
3. What is better with a WD Black? I see they all pretty much have 7200RPM. What more should i look at?

1. Good

2. Mostly black, some white, and some light grey. Use their custom cable configurator.

3. What do you mean? If you mean what SSD to pair with it, the one you have is excellent.

You said i should get a WD black instead of the seagate one. Why is that? Like what is the difference?

WD Black, IIRC, is faster and higher quality. Once you get into Seagate's Enterprise drives, though, those are GREAT quality.

its a really solid build.  the only thing that i might change is the ssd.  you really dont need a 850 pro.  the only thing that they really give you i belve is a longer warrenty and overall longer life.  save your money and go for a 850 evo or if you really want fast speeds look at a m.2 drive.  also for hard drive i personally have a 2tb seagate firecuda and i love it.  its quiet and is an sshd so but otherwise everything looks good

@DizoriaN maybe consider throwing CableMod into the mix?

I'd recommend checking out our ModMesh cables.

Why 850 PRO? 850 EVO is good enough.
Overall, it's a nice build.

I was kinda thinking it was better tbh. Not worth the extra cost?

Only worth if you want the 10 year warranty

Hey @DizoriaN shipping times for Norway is around 3 days. Processing times will vary depending on if you purchase some of our premade kits, or if you are using our custom configurator. The custom configurator we currently have about a 2 week lead time, while premade kits are about a 1-3 day processing time.
