Computer case colours *STRAW POLL*

This is for a DT project in which I'll be making a custom computer case. I need this information to gauge popularity of case colours in a "power user" environment.

 

I am aware this isn't an extensive list of colours, it would take me forever to list every possibility, but if your current case isnt there, please vote for a previously owned case, or your favourite colour combination.

 

Thank you for your time

EDIT: I need a relatively large sample size of voters, so if this could be pinned for 24hrs or something at the top of the thread it would be a massive help.

I realised just after I published the poll that black and green was going to be a good combination :') with Nvidea and razor both having their colours schemes like that, but oh well :')

Design an elegant case that uses solid wood. Like a nice oak with a dark cherry stain.

I was going to do black and white acrylic, fully modular. Its hard to explain quickly in a comment but at some point I'll be posting a build log for it which will essencially act as an online portfolio/live feedback source through out the build

Going by them, acrylic cases look fantastic with a bit of vivid colour on them, especially if it's slightly transparent, so it lets a bit of light through.

In the sense that they build in acrylic and I will also be building in acrylic, yes. other than that no. As i said, its going to be fully modular, and will be of my own design style.

 

The idea with it is that every component is in a separate module, the MOBO, Graphics card, RAM all being in one module as the main componant, then the PSU, SDD mounts, HDD mounts, ODD mounts and every other components being in separate modules. 

 

Look up Project Christine by Razor for a quick idea.
