Which Build Theme?

Go to solution Solved by jwacher,

The Phanteks Enthoo Pro M is a really nice case. i have loved having it. With a little RGB it looks amazing but understated when needed. It also supports custom watercooling if you are into that.

I have planned 2 builds that are very similar, one has a black and white theme and the other has a black and orange theme, which do people prefer?

I don't agree, the 1050 ti is temporary because it is still worth the money I will be upgrading to a 1070 or 1080 at Christmas so I want to get high quality parts that are much harder to upgrade such as a motherboard
