Case LEDs

Hello,

   I recently bought a Fractal Design ARC Mini R2. I'm thinking of putting LED fans and strips inside....

   I'm too lazy to write it down, so I made some pics.

   My problem is, the side window is smoked. If I put green LEDs in there, will it look good? Also, the front filter is not really designed for it....

 

   This question is aimed for Fractal ARC Mini R2 users, but all answers/comments are much more then welcome!

Should do, the smoked will just make the lighting more subtle which looks better IMO

 

Corsair do static pressure optimised LED fans for the front

Sounds good to me, is your HDD a 2.5" or 3.5"? If it's 2.5", you can hide it behind the motherboard and take out the HDD cages for dat airflow.

Can't hide it :D

So green LEDs with smoked window should look good, eh?

Yep :)
