Black or White pc for a dark warm room lighting setup

Budget (including currency): Just wanna know the color.
Hey all,

I just wanna know your guy's opinions on this because while white can reflect and contrast light better, since my room is going to be dark, would a black setup be preferable?
I know its personal preference but I just want to hear your guy's thoughts

(also it will be this for like peripherals as well depending on the color)

Are you able to find stock photos of room examples that get close to representing the room you describe? Similarly for the PC styles? It is hard to define any of the description without some visual frame(s) of reference. (At least for me)

this is what i WANT it to look like
but realistically it'll be like 25% - 30% brighter
i'll be using the hyte 70 (non touch)

make it an actual color , I hate black or white builds..... beyond boring.

Feels like regular people finally caught up with a 1994 copy of architectual record and scoff at making their computers an actual color. Like as if they're building a house or buying a Bently and need to consider resale value.

sorry i have strong feelings on this

It's up to you really. You could try to have AI create images to visualize what white and black is going to look like.
