Which build would look better?

sid0195

Planning on a new build but dont know which color scheme would look better.

 

Option #1

Enthoo Luxe White (with LED on blue)

Bitfenix Spectre Pro White LED with Blue LED Strip OR Blue LED fans with WHITE LED Strip

Sapphire Vapor-X 290

Be Quiet! Shadow Rock 2

White sleeving for the future (regular black wire for now)

 

So basically Blue, white color scheme (but with black and blue motherboard right now)

 

Or

 

Option #2

Enthoo Luxe Black (With LED on blue)

Bitfenix Spectre Pro Blue LED

Sapphire Vapor-X 290

Be Quiet! Shadow Rock 2

Blue and Black sleeving for the future (regular black wire for now)

 

So basically Blue and Black color scheme

I think the first one will look better. But you may want to get some cyan LEDs.

I meant an LED strip along with the fans. If done right you can get the right amount of lighting from either and it will look GREAT.

To get a cyan color you'd have to use only a little bit of blue but it should work. Here's what I found on NCIX.

Thanks! A bit off the topic of LEDS I like the idea of a cyan/blue/white scheme but im a bit "iffy" since its going to be using the regular black PSU wires.........do you think it will make a big differencee?

Nah, cause the card itself also has black.

I personally prefer the 2nd option but you should go with whatever you think will look best to you.

Also i think ill just end up using the seperate enthoo luxe LED so the shade of the blue is the same http://www.ncix.com/detail/phanteks-enthoo-luxe-interior-multicolor-cf-100206.htm or what if i go with blue led fans and white led strips instead? http://www.ncix.com/detail/nzxt-sleeved-led-case-lighting-88-55897.htm

 

what do you think i should do?

My preference would go out to Blue and black, try to get everything in a dark blue color. It looks more premium IMO. But of course the first one can look awesome aswell if excecuted correctly. Goodluck!. One tip : If you go for the first one go for a white PSU such as:

The PSU colour wont be a problem as the enthoo luxe has a PSU shroud :D

Whichever is up to you. Now that you mention it, blue fans with white LEDs would look, I personally think, a little bit better because you have the white lighting and blue accents.
