Default Tuniq Tower vs Tuniq Tower

Hey guys, so I'm really close to buy a TT and was wondering what was wondering why the regular Tuniq Tower has better reviews and the Blue LED one.

Heres the standard one:

And here's the one with the blue LED fan:

Is the LED fan the only reason why the second one only has 4 eggs? I really liked the blue lights!

THanks!

Looks like it. Those two heatsinks are identical besides the blue LED fan.

You think it's as bad as the reviews? I'm undecided. I would get the regular one for the reviews but the blue LED one looks nicer. But then again some of the reviews say you can't even tell it has lights due to the way it's positioned...

Hey Ramodkk, have a look at this (http://benchmarkreviews.com/index.ph...d=90&Itemid=62 ) it's what I'm considering over my Zalman 9700.

I'd highly doubt that an LED light would cause a cooler to drop down. I think the number of reviews is to blame here. The regular one has almost 300 while the latter has only 50 or so.
