I am building a new Ryzen 1600x gaming rig, also planning to buy a RX 580. I am trying to go for a Complete white-build. I need suggestions on: What motherboard should I buy? What case should I buy thats under 150? What RX 580 should I buy? Preferably white-themed. Also, what liquid cooling kit should I go with? I also need a suggestion on what ram to get that is white-themed. Thank you.

The R5 1600x is a factory overclocked R5 1600. There's no point in getting the X version. Also, no point in getting an X370 motherboard unless you plan on SLI. B350 is also unlocked and can overclock. Also, much cheaper. Then you may as well take the money saved and pop in an R7 1700 for an extra 2c/4t over the 1600.

White cases? NZXT S340 Elite, Phanteks P400/P400S TG, InWin 303, InWin 101, Deepcool Genome (should skip the AIO since this case has one built in), NZXT H440, Fractal Design Define R5, Aerocool P7-C1, or any case and several cans of white spray paint.

As an owner of a first gen gloss white NZXT S340, I'd say that there are better options nowadays. I'm just too cheap/lazy to redo my custom loop in a different case, or else...

WD Blue sata SSD's are still kind of on sale on Amazon right now.
