Hi, this is my first time building rig. The spec below is taken from aftershock I just select all things from the list I have no idea what needs and what not.

Any similar rig I can build with Budget $2000-$2200?
As for the casing I would like to get blue themed if possible. Any help would be appreciated, thank you. :)
