Here is my soon to be first ever gaming pc: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/D2Lt23

I am looking for a way to bring it down in price without taking away any performance. I alreeady asked on the forums on pcpartpicker and got literally no response. Hoping i have better luck here. If there is any way to also match the color scheme of the case that would be nice.

knocked about $100 off the price by getting a cheaper mobo/ ram and case. won't see a performance hit at all. psu is more power than needed but after rebate for the price there is nothing better.
