Questions surrounding Lian Li O11 Dynamic EVO

[Blqckqut]

im planning to buy one of these cases, the things is, my entire workroom is black (black monitor, mousepad, keyboard, mouse, hub)

 

only thing that isnt black is my table (its white)

 

my favorite color is black (who would have guessed) but white usualy shines more rgb and lights up the entire case even more, so im contemplating if i should get the white case or the black case, id love the black one since its my fav color, but would love white too for the looks, its just way better with rgb, and im thinking of having an extra bit of color blending, so my desk doesnt feel alone haha

 

i am indeed willing to paint my components (spray paint gpu cooler and such, or create custom design :D)

 

thoughts? (both are same price)

this is my current setup

Some cases have options like that, or paint it, give a nice contrast showing how black everything is, My rig is totally murdered out though

white exterior too sadly, and im not spending more than 180 on a case

 

the dynamic evo here in belgium is 180 and im already making an exception for that price

Personally  don't think id go full white case, It would conflict with your game space being snow white in the middle, especially if you black out the desk

so for me, full black? even tho the rgb wont look as good on the components vs white?

[Ripred]

My feeling on it its either go full white with little splashes of black accents or the opposite full black with white accent

I like RGB set in black, gives more of a focused effect where white tends to blend it all together into rainbow soup, but its a preference thing

i think full white would look good, but would feel so out of place, everything else is black lol, plus i made sure to select my components to be all black with rgb (as you can see) because i love the night theme, thanks, ill go black!, you want pics after i have the case?

yes, Especially if you also black out the desk, love murdered out setups

nah i dont wanna black out the desk, too much effort lol, and dont think ill get another desk that fits my needs like this (its from ikea, i like spacious desks and all the 'gamer' desks ive seen are fairly small, these 2 tables take up 1/4th of my room haha, plus it would be too expensive, what do you suggest? at least 2-3 meters in lengeth with adjustable legs (or motorised)

 

otherwise id make it full black

Forgive the zombification, been a long month. 
Because we gots grubby fingers. Dark colors hide grime much better, going white commits you to a LOT of cleaning over the years.
