[Build Help] Green/Black Water Cooled PC

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Gsmarena

Build Help/Ready:

Have you read the sidebar and rules? (Please do)

Yes

What is your intended use for this build? The more details the better.

High end modding of Skyrim and potentially Fallout 4 modding. I also want to fit a black/green themed water cooled system, sort of a fallout themed color scheme, but a more futuristic approach.

If gaming, what kind of performance are you looking for? (Screen resolution, FPS, game settings)

I'm looking for 60+ at least on skyrim at 1440p with heavy texture mods.

What is your budget (ballpark is okay)?

4500

Provide any additional details you wish below.

I left a lot of these catagories empty because I plan on carrying over what I'm currently using, am not exactly sure what I need yet to match the given parts, have not researched a given part well enough to decide, or haven't yet found a part to match the green/black theme.

I'm also really open to other case designs that might fit the theme, I would really prefer a full atx case.

Idea on why i picked some parts though.

cpu: Don't feel like paying for the x99 board, and there are no green/black x99 or z97 boards that I'm aware of. If there are any I would be willing to switch to match those boards.

Motherboard: I'm not too picky when it comes to bios, I couldn't really find any pure black, or green/black motherboards to fit the theme so I just settled with this. Would be entirely willing to change for an upgrade or theme matcher.

GPU: I like the idea of HBM, I'm quiet worried about the limited amount of RAM though. I'm considering going with a 980ti instead, but the enthusiast in me wants to have one of the first boards to have HBM in it, and direct x12 has potential VRAM stacking in the future?

RAM: 1866 is the fastest that my mobo supports that I'm aware of? Want to go 4*4 to match ram waterblock

SSD: I have limited knowledge on SSD and just chose 500gb for the size

HDD: Also have limited HDD knowledge and choose based on advice and 1tb size

Optical drive: Litterally 0 knowledge and choose based on ability to use blueray dvd and cd.

Thermal pastes: I listed 3 empty ones for different parts? I've heard that you need to have specific pastes for GPU's CPU's Ect

Motherboard Wires: Just trying to match theme

Case: The best that i've come across with theme matching, I really want a window, preferably clear(not tinted green). Looking for a Full ATX

Reservoirs: Just matching theme

Pump: Advice from friend

Radiator: Not sure what the case fits, will probably wait to get until case arrives.

Fittings/water lines/coolant: Waiting for case

Waterblocks: Trying to match theme, clear seems like it would be nice for the green coolant that i plan on using

Fan controller: Would be neat to have a controller match the theme based on water cooling

Monitor: To match the radeon Fury x's capabilties in 1440p with free sync, I would swap if i got a 980ti to a 1440p gsync

Keyboard: Either this or razor chroma, i liked the RGB and key caps on this better

Mouse: Pretty set on this, decent optical mouse with RGB, that seems like it would fit my lazy palm style

Mouse pad: I currently have a large steel series, but I'm looking to find a full keyboard/mouse pad that fits the black/green theme

Headphones: I have ad700's right now but the ad700x fits theme better

Speakers: Currently using some $150 klipsch 2.1 speakers from bestbuy, I was thinking about getting Corsair Gaming Audio Series SP2500 or a 5.1 surround sound system. I really prefer using speakers over my headphones most of the time, but I'm not sure how i would setup stands to fit a 5.1 system

Table: Haven't looked into it yet, but I want the computer to sit on the desk to the right of the monitor, and would prefer a black/green design.

Chair: Would prefer to match theme I have no knowledge of gaming chairs/ computer chairs.

NOTE: You do not have to follow this format, but please be sure to answer these questions. Please do not ask to simply be given a build. You are welcome to delete this section.
