How Do You Pick What Color To Get?

Arshdeep

I am just wondering, what is the thinking process that you go through when you pick a color of a headset, mouse, case, etc. to buy online. I do you visualize what would be your favorite or best for you?

 

E.g. just what you like, material (some white mice are glossy and black rubberized), or just what fits into your setup scheme.

 

I want this to be a on going thread. Really interested how you choose so I can be less picky and get a better color next time!

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.

I pick the best quality for the price I am looking for.  Aesthetics don't matter much to me as long as it doesn't look ridiculous.

I make it black.

 

Well, the HD800s don't really come in any other color and the colored grills just change it from the default black.

 

Otherwise, black.

 

Once you go black you never go back.

I pick what I like. Or if it only comes in one color I just get over it.

Its purely up to what you want it to look like. If you like a specific colour or material then go for it, who cares if others dont like it. I personally love purple LED's and hate red ones. It is primarily down to what you like most :D

 

RGB is always a safe bet!

If I have the option of colour I just pick what I think looks best / matches the rest of my stuff but really I don't care unless it's really garish as long as it performs well.

if Black isn't the cheapest, I'll go with less eye catching colors

but definitely not PINK, no pink color even it's came with the most cheapest version of something.

For me it's like

Most of the time it's something black ( what a surprise when almost every accessory is black )

 

Sometimes it's really hard to buy something that performs good, looks nice and also match our current color scheme. (So basically I just do performance and look)

I just match what goes with my white and black color scheme. And for components I just pick a scheme that I haven't done before and I know would look cool.
