What is your favorite color scheme?

Red Harbinger

I'm kind of tired of black and red as a scheme on boards and cards.  I love Black-White or White-Black.  Or just pure black.

I've grown fond with orange, and green, with either white or black.

I think it's awesome:

I actually like the black/red. I wish GPU manufactures would paint the shrouds to match with most of their motherboards for a certain gen, most go with just black, or black/red. Where are they green, blue, and gold painted shrouds?

Gray. And White. <3
I opt for these.

Sadly for now only full white components are produced by Galax, and these come at hell of a price :<

I want black and purple, or black an orange. Having trouble finding purple LED strips that suit my purposes.

Black and red is overdone, yes. Same goes for black and blue. This trend is actually making me miss Gigabyte's blue boards. Actually, I'd like an all red alu shroud, that would look mad.

Blue and Black, nuff said

 

Example:

Black and blue just look so pleasant. it is a shame only ASRock is doing blue on their low and high end stuff. And they are not exactly a reputable brand. I got an ASRock board too, no problems so far but it is brown and white with some blue (not much), very ugly.

Planning a build just like the one pictured with a blue H440 like the one pictured, except with a FX 8370, with a blue Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0. Looks similar to those ASRock boards. H220X with the blue on the block. Also a GTX 970 G1 Gaming with that blue Windforce logo with blue sleeved GPU power cables. A 840 EVO will also be mounted on those 2.5MM mounts for all to see. SP140 with the blue ring to finish it off.

The thing about ASUS GPU is they have red stickers that you can OPTIONALLY stick on the card. They should do that for every GPU in my opinion except have more colour options.

Maybe make stickers buyable at the very least.

I have always liked Silver and Blue, and always bought silver cases and equipment before everything went black in the late 2000s.

Black with red accents isn't bad though...that's what my build is. I chose it because I looked at a bunch of builds and I thought black and red or black and blue were the coolest looking, and red components were more common and cheaper than blue ones, so I went with black and red.

Don't be a fanboy ASUS didn't invent black and red scheme.

Fanboyism aside, you cannot neglect the fact MSI and Gigabyte(huge motherboard) companies started outputting red and black in the last year. Too many peoole are abusing it.

I'm not sure if Asus was the first but they were one of the first with Evga to start putting out red and black. Unless you any other brands that started doing this? I do want to know more about motherboard history, :)

I personally like black and yellow, then black and white, then black and silver. My build is mostly MSI so it's red and black. The chrome on the MSI 970 is sexy as hell though. I kind want to add LEDs but I don't want red. Dunno what color I want the LEDs to be.

Red and black are my favorite colors, but I don't like having that color scheme in my computer. I prefer black and white or black and yellow.

Black and red is why I went for white and blue for my build. Granted, I do have a black motherboard, PSU and GPU, but the case lights are blue along with the botched paint job I did.

White looks so much better on a PC if you do it correctly, imao.
