RGB strips are not listed in the drop down, but $14 for 2 remote controlled RGB strips gives the case a little character even though the ring fans are always red.
The AM4 "X" bracket to put the Coolermaster Hyper 212 air-cooler horizontal was sold out everywhere online or was more expensive than the entire cooler when I did find it online - so I decided to stove-pipe it vertically.
With the red ring fans and the RGB strips on red - I dubbed this build the Murder Box.
Red rings and setting the RGB strips on green gives it a Christmas feel.
The RGB strip on the case is controlled by a separate case switch located by the power button, the MoBo didn't have an RGB header or I would have been able to sync the case RGB with the RGB strips.
Budget Ryzen (Murder Box) from spare parts, leftovers from upgrades and e-Bay magic.
I had just built a Ryzen 7 rig for my daughter and upgraded a Ryzen rig for myself. I had a lot of left over parts from upgrading and previous builds and decided instead of letting everything gather dust, to build a gaming rig around the parts just sitting there doing nothing. The result was a total out-of-pocket cost of $455.00.

Sold it! Literally just a hodgepodge of parts laying around so it was an extra computer just collecting dust. Really happy it's going to a new home where it will be used.
