My h440 looks so dark in it, my mobo and black and red and the 295x2 glows red. Should I go with a red led at the top or white? 

 

Would like some opinions :#

OK you said your mobo is red and black, that means if you do put red LEDs it will look really bad trust me, go with white LEDs they will bring out the red accents and it will look sweet

I concur. White led would make it look nice. You don't want to drown it in red light.

Mostly red, I was about to answer white since most people have a red/black build and white draws the red out soooo well. But for white red contrasts like a beast!

Do not  as I  do, and  not  as I say. Instead do as you may..

Think im going to go with white since I think red would make it overbearing.
