PC case Aesthetics

S3nTinel09

Hello fellows,

How are you?

I am here to ask your opinion of how I can make my pc look aesthetically more pleasing...

 

First thing it would be to buy the G.Skill RGB Trident Z Royal silver 32GB DDR4 that are like a rgb mirror.

Secondly, I was thinking in buying the lian li rgb cables for the 24pin mobo power cable, as well as the gpu power cable to make it look more vibrant.

Thirdly, because the rear fan and the two intakes are from the phanteks p600s case I don't want to change them. Any ideas is I can find a rgb cover to place on top of them to make them rgb as well?

 

Fourthly, the AIO is working great but also was thinking about placing something more rgb flashy 

-MSI MAG Coreliquid 360R

-NZXT Kraken X73 or Z73

-DEEPCOOL Castle 360EX

 

Fifth, under the gpu I have two external WD usb 3 storages that have no idea where to put them and their cables are too obvious. Any ideas where to place them to hide them up close?

 

Lastly, the P600s has a windows for the psu, any suggestions what I can add there? Don't really like to look at the psu as it is.

 

Thanks and cheers fellow pc lovers!

Asthetics is a subjective thing, personally i just throw it out the window cause performance >>> asthetics but thats just me xD

 

The theme looks to be green so set the rainbow puke gpu rgb to green, same goes for that blue light below the aio, that should be an instant improvement

 

Aio wise you dont look to be ocing based on the aio size so just swap the fans for p12 0db argb or p120 bionix argb, noctua level performance but 2/3 the price + rgbs, might even improve performance so it isnt just a pure asthetic upgrade

 

Tridentz royal are hardcore overclocking rams, unless you intend on tuning the crap out of your rams it is a waste of money

 

Case fans wise i think phanteks sells some rgb fan frames, though might aswell swap em with p12 0db argb or p120 bionix rgb to match everything

 

 

Also could you give full specs of your pc?

Not to mention if you intend on ocing or not

Btw why make your pc more "asthetically pleasing" rather than make it perform better and maybe last longer

Well, that's personal taste.

Personally, I don't like a completely illuminated colorful bright box puking rainbows (Example).
For my build I didn't go for RGB at all, but if I would have gone for RGB, I would go for something minimalistic with accents (Example, Example)

I mean... What's cooler: A kid's hello kitty birthday party 24/7 or a sleeping beast glowing in the dark?

 

So for your build I would turn off the green case light and make the other accents the same color.
Maybe some fans with an RGB circle, but not fully RGB fans.

First of all thank you very much for the prompt response. I am fan of overclocking my system and I have done it @ 5Ghz from bios as well as adjusted the fans for silence as well as performance.

-Trident z royal i found some at 4000Mhz at 18 cas and 4400Mhz at 19 cas - Any ideas?

-the Phanteks Halos Lux Digital RGB look pretty slick and nice, not kids flashy rgb

 

-Btw why make your pc more "asthetically pleasing" rather than make it perform better and maybe last longer -- To answer your question I would like to do both

Holy hell, with some 3D active glasses, 4 people could play something at the same time at 1080p 70 Hz 😄

I agree with above.  RGB is nice; RGB rainbow unicorn puke is not.  1 color and stick with it.  Maybe add a small amount of an accent color if you must.  Though I'd say decorating your environment around the PC is a superior solution to just putting RGB improvements in the case.  Even an RGB strip on the back of your monitor for ambient glow.  Or an RGB strip on the bottom of the desk, aimed at the floor--also for ambient glow.
