Sweet build but some colour would be nice though

 

Yeah, I'm planning on getting LED strips soon. I'm trying to decide which color though. I think white LEDs would work well with the color scheme, but I could do blue to match my RAM and 7770. Hmmm.... decisions, decisions...

A few LED strips could really top off the build... I'd recommend these. (US only)

 

They have one of the longest lasting LED's on the market despite not being the most 'Wallet Friendly'

EDIT: I didn't see your post before I posted mine... Great minds think alike? I'd recommend white however, as to it matches the case excellently.

If the h440 supported 5 and a quarter inch bays you could have grabbed an nzxt hue, but youll be sweet dude

Nice man

 

I think white LEDs would look sharp with those colors.
