My turn for system building.

That looks good. 

Speaking of Richard wanting a keyboard recommendation I could do with one too as I'd like a new keyboard myself. The one I have is like a tank from the 80s but I'd still like a sleek modern USB keyboard that is black but the symbols on the keys are lit up with light in the keys so it's easy to type at night. I'd like the light to be a red color but beggars can't be choosers; are there any keyboards anyone has tried? As a Blender user it needs an integrated numpad.

I assume you mean cheap? There are hundreds of choices if cheap isn't a concern.

For backlit non mechanical keyboards you have still hundreds of options. What you want is one where the backlit is RGB but programmable or just red out of the box.

You can get that for $20.

This has what you want and is a brand I've sold people in the past with no complaints (that doesn't mean yours would be perfect cheap does mean cheap after all vbut Amazon has great returns)

Awesome, yes cheap is good. The one I saw before was like $75 on amazon although it included a matching red-lit mouse. Those look OK to me, cheap in electronics either means outdated tech or non-name brand tech..

$75 would likely be a mechanical keyboard. Membrane keyboards can be very cheap, if you didn't want backlight you could get one for $5.

Depending on your preferences and uses you might want a mech keyboard but they start around $50.
