Aesthetics: Is it worth the money?

True1q2w

I try to make my machines look good, but also while staying within a reasonable amount of budget for looks. I won't go out of my way to get all of the Super™ Ultra™ EXTREME™ GAMER™ Godlike™ Fatality™ Ultimate™ Performance™ Accelerated™ Turbo™ Plus™ 9000™ RGB stuff and make my PC look like a Christmas tree, but aesthetics are quite important to me.

 

I also find that cases, CPU coolers, keyboards, mice, etc... that are aesthetically pleasing tend to not really cost that much more than the ugly or more boring ones.

Linus and Steve throw shade at each other somewhat regularly. It's always just friendly joking, but on a few occasions, newcomers have thought there was a legitimate feud between them.

I absolutely love making my computer look good with RGB and stuff, as much as I can afford. 

 

I spend a large part of my day interacting with it (both games and work) and I damn well want my daily driver to look sexy. ❤️
