This build was much needed! I was still using a Cosmos S case (10ish years old?!), P67 Platform and a 2600k (though still a great chip). 
 
Full Parts list can be found here,

I think it turned out fantastic! Every LED feature is RGB and can be changed if I get bored of the colour scheme, and it turned out great. I have plans for the future to get some RGB 140mm fans (such as the TT Riing premium 140mm's) but I will leave it for the future. 
 
Only thing that isnt new in the PC is the power supply. It has been going strong for years and years now. I assume and hope that it is the next thing to die... as long as it doesn't bring any other parts in my system along with it! Yeah, maybe too hopeful lol. 
 
Hope you guys like it. Thanks

    Great build!! The white light on the right is a little bit to much imao, but still a very good looking PC.

    I bet it looks better in person Mitch. 
     
    Is that a custom side panel Keith, I love the Cosmos cases!!! I still have my Cosmos 1000 [yours is nicer] Pretty cool build man, thanks for showing it off. Quite an upgrade.

    clean build, though you can say i'm spoiled as far as seeing nice PSU shrouds.  Really think Be Quiet! needs to invest in some.
