first time builder here 
...any thoughts/ recommendations on this build?....my theme was supposed to be white/ silver/ blue but some of the parts dont quite go with it...like the mobo!...i dunno if there is a white/ silver/ blue mobo out there that has similar features to the gaming 5...so any ideas are welcome for any of the parts.. (as long as they fit with the theme and offer similar functionality as these parts)...thnx !

computers than he does so yea)
