So first of all sorry my bad English, it's my second language.. So my girl friend is so frustrated for her ancient PC, that she asked me to get her new one. But then i started to think that, she don't need the newest stuff. Because she just use Facebook etc. So i have some spare part's that are reasonable new. Then i found some case that is very good condition. So i started to think that, i would borrow my friend garage and paint it fully pink. Even in side also, so it looks great when you but led's there. So next thing is to get a those Led cooler on the case. So i was thinking that what is the perfect color along with the pink case? And any other tip's would be also very nice. And take a mind that, this build is going totally for a chick. So it has to be clean build also. 

 

And sorry if this is wrong area, mod's can re arrange it to correct area. 

Failure is not an option!

White or Black are always a good match for pink.

White LED's generally look good with pink, however orange does too if you do it right. For case accents and other things, black goes really good with pink. See this case for example:

NZXT-Phantom-Big-Tower-USB-3.0-pink-4.jp

It has blue LED's though which doesn't fit(IMO).

 

I have to warn you though: Pink on a case is easy to screw up, so you will want to do some planning to avoid the "cheap" look.

Painting the inside of a case can be pretty difficult. If you have access to a rivet gun and a drill, then I would suggest drilling out the rivets that hold the drive cages. This will allow you to separate the cage from the chassis. It will be much easier to get even coverage on everything.

I may not have expressed myself well. If you have any questions, dont be afraid to quote this comment and ask :)

well I did something similar once.

 

I use pink and white.

 

it was a white 600T.

 

I painted all the black pink and the inside all pink. fan side are all pink and black fan in the middle.

 

I use white LED to give it a great look on the inside.

 

it looks good but now it's just sitting in the storage with the 2500k since my wife is rocking on my old tj11 :) although this time she wants me to paint it black/yellow but didn't have the time lately.

Live your life like a dream.

In my opinion, i would think white is the best for pink cases. Try some AF140 White LED fans from corsair. Also, You don't really need to colour the inside of the case and even pay attention to part selection for aesthetics since you said she just browses facebook :/

Thank's for all the help guys! This topic is living. Because i haven't yet to decide all the option. I have started to think that. i would paint a outside only. Because the inside isn't nothing special. So it might be the easiest way. I just wan't to do something special. Because she do like effort that put on the building. So what you think that, if i painted other wise pink and the front panel total snow white? or only side panel's pink and top and front white. That might be something special right? :D

How sure are you that she likes pink? Just because she is a girl, doesn't mean she likes pink, especially if the case is pure pink.

 

You can girl it up without going full pink. Pink accents might be better suited. Up to yourself though, just a word of warning.

She has say'd to me that she like pink, because her favorite color is a pink. I have been also thinking that what else, is the way of do it looking like a chick PC. Because i really wanted her to know that i have done that for just her.
