Mines is the EK Supremacy Clean Nickel and the Clean Acrylic

I like the color scheme of Noctua fans. Deal with it. Forget about the bad memories of the past.

Forget about the bad memories of the past, take the good ones along with you through the present, and look forwards to the good things that will come in the future.

I got the 380i myself, looking just like that picture above except with silver shining bitspower compression fittings. The chrome/black goes well with my dominator platinums as well so I don't mind. But no one can deny that XSPC and EK have great color customization options for plenty of different motherboards.

 

For example:
