first build First build, ~$1000-1200 price range.

[NyxeonFX]

So i've been looking into getting a PC for awhile, I will be getting a job here soon, (14 btw )
and I am wanting to save up about $1200 to buy a new PC for editing and gaming.
Here is the list that i have created already, (keep in mind I am trying to keep a Pure White theme)

But yeah, that is pretty much it! Feel free to make any edits to the pcpartpicker, or anything to improve!
 

Thanks for you time

That would probably work better, but LED's are cooler, (and also from what i've heard make your pc faster )

Ah, so if i go for the all white build and get 4 NZXT HUE+'s, the light will be so blinding that it will be 40% faster? maybe more?

But what about the other components, dont they need to be RGB to be faster? or just have the effect of the RGB

that psu is not good, get a corsair cx or s/m12ii instead.

Made a few changes.

You need a SSD in a build of that calibre. Power supply could be better too.

You can't be serious about having a different color will make your computer go faster.

 

In fact, choosing a specific color scheme doesn't make any difference at all when it comes to computer performance.

Here's my recommended computer build irrespective of color with the exception of the computer case.

 

Going with a specific color theme does not make any difference in computing performance or power.

Oftentimes, staying with one specific color theme can potentially give you an inferior computer build, because you are sacrificing better computer components over a specific color of those computer components.

why would you ever suggest a 570 for $490?!?! That is literally over 300 above the normal price for a decent 1080p card, compared to a gtx 1070 which can be had for cheaper.

Are you sure about this?

That's only a savings of $40 and you're making a stink of this?

 

The Radeon RX 570 8 GB graphics card is still better than the GTX 1070.

are

you

baked? 

 

the 1060 is comparable to the 570 and 580, and the 1070 is in a totally different performance bracket. 

 

this compares fury x vs 1070 vs 480/1060 and 470.

On what basis? Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. If it was better, why was its target market price half of the GTX 1070's?
