Hey there everybody. Got this case in the mail today, super sexxah. (note: The one I have has a window)

Just a cosmetics question. what colored LEDs do you think I should put in it?

If red: I would just have the two 140mm fans in the front [behind the hood-vent looking grate] be red and leave the rest of the case dark.

If blue: both 140mm fans would be blue LED, and I would put some blue cathodes in the case as well. Might color over them with blue sharpie to get a darker blue.

Blue and white: Blue fans, blue and white cathodes

Any other suggestions?

I think purple would look weird in this case. I can't make up my mind about green. Green is usually used in more "rounded" cases, but I can't help but think how it would look glowing out of that front and side =]

Be different, go green :P

I personally want to buy a Storm enforcer for the build I'm planning on putting together and throw a 200mm Blue LED megaflow in the front.
 
I really Like NVIDIA Green LEDS.I was planning to change my Blue Setup to NVIDIA Green LEDS. :D

What if I bought a RAW computer, would I be cool then?

WHY???
 
LED's are a luxury item, and more or less unnecessary. Unless they are LED fans which perform better than regular fans, i'd just as soon avoid them and focus on getting the computer set up correctly/running smooth. Lights might also keep you awake at night if you leave the computer on, a real pain if you're trying to sleep and have to up for work in the morning.
 
I'm still thinking of green a lot. . .

What I might do is just get a couple of 12" cathodes, and put them somewhat close the front fans. I might be able to get the same effect (or an even cooler one) as having LED fans then.
 
I think Red would look good with that case,Is your inside painted black?

I have both Blue and green Cold cathodes in my case,The top half is blue and the bottom is green,It actually looks really nice.
If i had a decent camera id post a pic up. :/
 
No, it isn't. Only real downside to this case is the insides, bottom and back panel are unpainted.

(Ok, another drawback is it only has 2 USB ports, but my mobo will have about 14 :D)

And is this a similar color scheme to what you have? Minus the flashing, of course

Yes basicly the same,in the middle where the gfx card is the colours meet 50/50 it looks really nice and clean,I think i got the cathods in just the right place.

You should definatly consider painting the inside black though,Will look alot better.
