my question. how would you style this build? (without full watercooling). i wanted to get it orange and black but then i realised the orange is going to look ugly in a full black build. 

so in which color scheme would you put this in? please give me some pictures or products to get. i want to have the same price hardware as i selected.

 

EDIT: how would you make the color orange really shine in this build?

White and black. Storm trooper ftw.

Honestly though go with what you want, not what others think is cool.

By "this build" you mean the one in your signature?

 

The choise of color is always a personal preference... so i don't know how to help you. My taste of color may not be the same as yours.

yes.

i know its my build but i think the orange isn't gonna be very nice in a whole black build. let me rephrase my question. how can i make the orange stand out in a almost whole black build? 

 

else i will end up with this:

i want something like this, with the different colors in there and the orange is not to dark.

note: i will put the LED's under the window. so its only the glow you see not the bright LED's themself.

i'm not that good with photoshop but could someone design me a build with white and orange led's so the orange is pretty light and the white led will make it shine a bit.

I would go with all black parts, some some insanley brightly colored parts in it. That's just me. Go for black and maybe your favorite color?

Though it's a 900D, I hope you get the idea.

These from NZXT are nice. Also these from BitFenix should be good too.

thanks for your reply. exactly what i mean. i think i will get the XLF-F1253 for my exhaust fans (h100i and fan in the back) and then 1 orange nzxt LED strip. and just 2 140mm silent wings 2 in the front and 1 120mm in the bottom.

Should be possible, though I've never tried on mine :S Never got corsair link to work porperly

seen a video that i works. you can set it to orange too :) do you know anything about psu's? i need more than 750W so i was considering the corsair rm 850W. its made by another company than the rm 550W which hardocp reviewed. will it be a good psu or do i need to buy an other one?

I presume the build is the one in your sig. So I wonder if you looked at a motherboard like GA-Z87X-OC Force (rev. 1.x)? Or memory like http://www.gskill.com/en/product/f3-1600c9d-8gao? I don't know how these fit your budget but they certainly highlight orange and black. There is also the Zotac GTX 780, but I'm a little hesitant to mention it as I have no experience with the brand.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

the zotac gtx 780 is €60,- more expansive and the orange is pointing down so you don't really notice it. the force mobo is really expansive too and it doesn't add much for me. i will get orange memory though.
