The green does a lot to drown out the colors of your gear, but a black motherboard and graphics card without red accents would really solidify the build. I do quite like those riing fans set to Green though

 

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

Thanks. Next upgrade of mb+cpu+ram I will definitely get parts without any accents or with green ones.

Thanks. Yes, I built the older Dell running Windows XP for older games. I'll post pics and specs later.

I have another PC in the room: HTPC and I'll post this one later as well.

Here is the old dell I use for older games.

I got a semi-gutted dell vostro 200 with Core 2 Duo 8300 and 2x512mb ddr2 ram. There was no hdd and dedicated gpu, only the embedded one. I got an ADATA u800 128gh ssd for $30 and a Palit Geforce 9800+ 512mb for $20 off Ebay. Works like charm.

I decided to upgrade while prices aren't sky high due to Trump's extra taxes.
