Help choosing PC Components

[Oral Fuat]

Hello.

Im looking to build my first PC. The main purpose of the build is casual gaming, working from home (connecting to a RDP) and having a pretty PC to look at, lots of RGB!

 

I want to get a full tower to be able to fill it with RGB fans, to keep it cool and have lots of air flow. 

 

I would like the motherboard, RGB fans, RGB RAM and Cooler to all be controlled by one piece of software, so everything is the same colour.

 

My current part list is this. Its probably completely wrong and needs changing but any advice would be great. 

 

Thanks.

Naw, everyone drives their Ferraris around the neighborhood on Sundays

 

You're buying for a PC that will be viable in years to come, but you're just not using it to capacity now.  Like buying a house with 6 bedrooms for 2 people.  Totally your call, bragging rights are fun too

That whole statement is 100% correct haha

[Dedayog]

One thing, you list 9 fans PLUS 3 on the AIO.  Do you have a case that can hold that many?

 

Opinions on your overkill aside, just making sure you have room for all that RGB.

I haven’t actually found the case yet so that’s just over estimating lol. ?
