I'll skip on the Hue+

Besides I'm good with the fans I normally get, BeQuiet and Noctua.

So why are you bitching about RGB fans you don't use then?

Or you can get a $10 RGB strip and have enough for your case, your desk, behind your bed frame and still have some spare if a few go out.

Hue+ > 2 of these. Though I'd probably pay the extra $20 just to get 2 of them... More fans I'll have laying around :3

True... but I'm a slave to the spectrum wave.  The Thermaltake Riing I already have comes close, but I need THAT. :D

NZXT made RGB fans? 29$ each? I think there's a cheaper solution

huehuehueheuhue

 

muh specs

Screens- Acer preditor XB241H (1080p, 144Hz Gsync), LG 1080p ultrawide, (all mounted) directly wired to TV in other room

Stuff- k70 with reds, steel series rival, g13, full desk covering mouse mat

All parts black

Workstation(desk)- 3770k, 970 reference, 16GB of some crucial memory, a motherboard of some kind I don't remember, Micomsoft SC-512N1-L/DVI, CM Storm Trooper (It's got a handle, can you handle that?), 240mm Asetek based AIO, Crucial M550 256GB (upgrade soon), some hard drives, disc drives, and hot swap bays

That's not what those cost. Each HD120 RGB is $29.99 each, $49.99 w/controller or $89.99 for three fans and controller. I think the link above is the fan w/controller SKU. 

 

SP120 RGB fans are $19.99/29.99/69.99 respectively for the same SKUs.

Please... can we just please get some nice looking fans that are super effective and quiet at a reasonable price, instead of all this seizure inducing blingy club crap?

Be Quiet's Silent Wing series, Corsair AF and SPs, some of Fractal's fans, Cooler Master JetFlow, BitFenix Spectre Pro, and so on. There are plenty of great fans out there that aren't RGP, but you better be prepared to pay $15-$30 (not sure about prices where you live, but likely not cheap) a piece for them. Also you will likely have to buy a lot of them from watercooling and more enthusiast focused etailers, Since you're in Denmark I'd recommend Aquatuning. They have a decent selection of fans.

Tell me about it, I have 3 Fractal Venturi fans. Not exactly cheap. They weigh a lot for a fan though. Point is enough with all this RGB garbage. We are going back to the early 00's in terms of tacky bling modding.

Yes! Give us an ultra compact S340 for mATX and one for ITX, I said this on their FB page months ago and got this retarded reply from the page: "The S340 already supports mATX and ITX motherboards."

I run my browser through NSA ports to make their illegal jobs easier. :P
If it's not broken, take it apart and fix it.

I was hoping the manta would be a mATX case. Hopefully they've got something in the works

You could easily fit mATX in that case if they hadn't tried to abstract the internals.

I don't think it would look very good at any smaller size

I don't know, as taboo as RGB may, I really like the ways these look and my color preference changes with my mood, plus the way my setup is I don't actually have to look at the case all the time so it wouldn't get annoying or anything. I had originally set out for a black/orange build and have SEVEN of the LTT Noctua fans (6x120mm and 1x140mm) but am thinking about getting rid of both the NZXT orange/black case and the fans to instead purchase a plain black H440 and some of these things... hmm. Given that I've already got that cash tied up in case fans (lol) the cost really wouldn't be too hard to justify at this point.

If apple make case fan it won't have cables

it will be battery operated and recharged by your blood because you will become suicidal at the fact that something like that can actually exist. 

Space Journal #1: So Apparently i  was dropped on the moon like i'm a mars rover, in a matter of hours i have found the transformers on the dark side of the moon. Turns out its not that dark since dem robots are filled with lights, i waved hi to the Russians on the space station, turns out all those stories about space finding humans instead of the other way around is true(soviet Russia joke). They threw me some Heineken beer and I've been sitting staring at the people of this forum and earth since.
