NZXT HUE gives you all colors for a decent price, but if you definitely want white get bitfenix alchemy strips.

They seems to be very long at a medium price point so I would probably need like 3 strips so will cost me 45 pounds whilst the hue will be 30 pounds so would it be better to go for the hue ?

If the NZXT HUE is long enough get it. (2 metres)

Does the hue give as good an effect as the alchemy

NZXT sells single colored LED strips $10 for 1M length and $15 for 2M length. then there is the NZXT HUE which is good if you want to be able to change the color at will but cost $30. Then the bitfenix alchemy strips witch are about $30 for 60cm. all options look great just google image search to see builds using them if you want to compare.

 

nice try kids now get back in the van...........
