Hi, as the title says i'm currently gathering parts as a sort of project to build my first PC i have included a list of the parts i'm looking to use for the build but there are a few things i'm unsure of and was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction or even suggest better parts please?

  • Lian-Li Lancool II ARGB Midi-Tower Case White
  • AMD Ryzen 7 3800XT Eight Core 4.7GHz (Socket AM4) Processor
  • Asus PRIME X570-PRO ATX AM4 Motherboard
  • Corsair Hydro Series H100i Platinum SE
  • Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3200MHz White
  • ROG STRIX 850W WHITE EDITION 80 PLUS
  • Samsung 970 EVO Plus 250GB M.2 2280 PCI-e 3.0 x4 NVMe Solid State Drive
  • 1TB 860 QVO SSD 2.5" SATA
  • GEFORCE RTX 3070 TBD which spec i go for.

The general theme is white i am trying to get as many white components as possible i am unsure of what power cables are needed for the MOBO and GPU and would like them in White if possible, could someone link me the cables i need but in white please?

Again if something jumps out at you like "This would work better with this build" and its keeping with the theme then please feel free to suggest it.

EDIT: I've already bought the Case and CPU from overclockers.

Plain forget Samsung's brand overpriced drives.
You can get doubled capacity NVMe drive for less than Samsung's pipsqueek, which would barely hold one game besides Windows.
Also QLC Flash drive costing more than TLC Flash drive is equally bad.

Anyway on that budget PC, especially with that much spent on brand/fashion hype, 1TB NVMe should be minimum.

And certainly wouldn't pay £150 for slim only 240mm radiator, which would be more than matched by lot cheaper best heatpipe coolers in continuous cooling.
Anyway this would be plenty for only 8 core Ryzen at "expensive" £54.
