You can make anything work, if you try. I have Noctua fans in my Red/Black PC. And it looks good imo.

I'd say yes. If you only use a little. Like accents on the mobo or heat-sink would be fine but a GPU not.

Its not a problem using white along side black and red, as I did with my build. Also a lot of builds has a 3rd accent color to different the 2 main colors.P1010655.JPG

I speak my mind, sorry if thats a problem.

If you go with something like that it fits pretty good but if it's something more basic with just accents on like standard cooled motherboard and graphics card I doubt it would look that good (to me).

I'm taking about a white MOBO in a secondary pc :P Or grey. I'm thinking about selling the rest of my old pc parts and build a secondary pc based on skylake. Do you guys think the g1 z170 or the asus xtreme viii can fit good into a black and red themed pc? Or should I go with a red and black msi z170a m9?

White goes with anything, as does Black.

It comes down to preference.  IMO it doesn't have to be quite like matching clothes.  Although I like going for a consistent color.  But I've seen mixed LED color schemes and GPU colors that I wouldn't have thought to put together, work very well.  As others have said, white and black are neutral and can almost fit in any situation.

Same in the Define S. I swapped them out with the black ones in my Corsair 750D to fix the problem :P
