Here is my Corsair 2500X build in white. This will be my backup build. Have an AMD 8700G in it and using the CPU internal graphics for now. I'm low on funds and waiting for a discrete GPU:

This is a project zero motherboard which means all of the connectors are on the back.

Looks good, Mr. rjohnson, very orderly, and bright .You could grow a small plant in there until you get your card ;)But seriously, I noticed StockX has 19 4090s, some at typicalprices, but 8 you can bid on . They list a PNY 4090 at $1,328for the last sale . I have an old PNY card, a 1050,it worked pretty good .What do you think of the AMD integrated graphics ? Too The Moon !

I hope to have a discrete GPU for that system within the next week.

Alright, hope it's a nice one at a bargain price !
I might buy a new GPU, but I'll hold out
until the end of the year .
Supposedly the NVIDIA 50 series will
come out then . Hopefully w/PCIe 5.0 .
Hopefully less money than a car :|
Too The Moon !

The white does give a really nice clean feeling to a case.

It's a complete iCue Link build. Helped a lot with cable management.

Here is another pic with some slight changes. Two separate PCI-E cables going to the GPU and some cable ties to clean things up:

Nice, me likes. Do you keep the lighting relatively understated.

The lighting used in the picture was a rainbow theme. I tend to change the theme quite a bit.

Nice looking build RJ.  I don't think I've ever seen a rig so bright inside.
