Gaming PC Suggestions That Aren't RGB

With all the new games coming out it's time to update my I7 4770K and GTX 780.
Anyone got any recommendations for a company that makes gaming PC's that aren't some RGB disco light playground?
A PC that just sits in the background made for people who prefer substance over 'style'?
I looked at The Zen at Aftershock which is the only model that didn't want me to poke my eyes out but they are out of stock with the case.
Looking in the 5k to 6k bracket.
I know I could make one out of parts but I have been doing that forever and can't be bothered this time.

    It's mostly just RGB fans and those are usually what comes with the cases they use. You can usually pay more and choose a different case, however your choices are usually quite limited.

    5k is quite overkill for a pure gaming system unless you have very specific requirements, eg you want to dabble in machine learning, you livestream gameplay on the side or want to run a demanding Sim.

    Pick your own parts and get PLE or Umart to build it. There are be quiet! and Fractal Design cases with no RGB and solid side panels.

    For 5k you should be able to get a rtx 4090 with what ever you want. Maybe Linus tech tips will hand build it for you once he stops harassing his employees. :)

    Seriously though, Just shoot a message to Nebula PC and see what they come up with.

    14900k is just around the corner, and the new amd gpus as well. If you are going to spend 5-6k just wait abit.

    Although this is the pc i would build myself.

    price is roughly $6200 but you can probably find discounts and ebay deals to get it under $6k.

    $5-6K is a great budget.. but do you need to spend that much? What are you planning to play, do you have a 4k monitor? Building the system yourself is always going to be better value and with better components but I get that sometimes it's easier to pay someone else to do it. RGB for the most part can also be disabled so I wouldn't let that put you off - seems everything is RGB now.
