Black and white/silver setup

This is my current build, it's mostly focused around being clean and sort of getting a colour scheme that's black and white.
It's got a delidded Intel Core I7 7700K @4.9Gghz, an MSI Z270 MPOWER Gaming Titanium motherboard, 4x8GB Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 3200Mhz RGB RAM sticks, a Zotac GTX 1070 AMP Extreme graphics card clocked at 2126Mhz and the Memory at 4800Mhz, a Corsair RM850X 2018 power supply, a Cooler Master ML240L RGB all in one liquid cooler and as a boot drive a Samsung 970 Pro 512GB.
The rest of the components are in the list below.
Next to being a complete computernerd I'm also kind of an audiophile. I've recently upgraded pretty much my entire audio setup to the following:
M-audio M-track 2x2 USB-C as an external sound card to both get the sound to my receiver and I use it as a mic input for my desktop
Onkyo TX-8250 stereo network receiver to power my bookshelf speakers and subwoofer
Polk Audio Signature S15E bookshelf speakers
Yamaha NS-SW200 subwoofer
For when I'm on the go I've got my Sony WH1000-xm2 wireless noise cancelling headphones.

My monitors are kind of a mixed bag, they're both Acer but that's really where the similarities end.
One of them is a XF240H, a FHD 144Hz gaming monitor while the other is a 4 year-old K242HL, a FHD 60Hz budget monitor from when I bought my first desktop.

To end this way too long story:
I'm planning on doing both full custom water cooling when I get some more upgrades (mainly a 1080TI or 2080, a Z370 or Z390 board and an 8th or 9th gen i7/i9) and a fully custom white/silver/black sleeved cable kit from either cablemod or corsair (cablemod has better options for custom colours but would also be a bit more expensive). Please let me know if you have other suggestions in the comments!
