Which led color(s) do you like the best? Give a reason if you can. Putting up poll......

pt · May 5, 2008

red, too many mods with blue leds already, and i always preffered the color red

Fitseries3 · May 5, 2008

i hate LEDs in computers. only on the motherboard do they look cool. they need to provide a function if it's gonna be used.

HOWEVER.... i had an asus board with board lighting for when you work on the computer... it would be better if they were white LEDs.

panchoman · May 5, 2008

blue is too common and overused.. thats why its gotta be a cool green or firey orange/red

blkhogan · May 5, 2008

Anything but blue. Everyfreakinthing is blue. Red and green are my personal choices. Reason why? AMD/ATI of course :toast:

Duxx · May 5, 2008

Orange. I dont think they need to serve any purpose... the sake of being different i guess is enough reason. Nobody wants to have the same look as everybody else. Blue is overdone.

ive always had black pc's with blue lighting ive just got bored of it now so ive gone black and red instead makes a nice change actually think the red looks better now.

ShadowFold · May 5, 2008

I like blue because my psu has blue LED's and I picked matching blue fans. I would've like them to be red tho.

Atnevon · May 5, 2008

Red I think is best...however, hard as hell to pull off right. Blue seems to be universal. Red takes a bit of research and work to get just right.

Squirrely · May 5, 2008

I actually like white LED's. I would prefer nothing over other colors. I removed the LED's (green) from my Zalman 9500 since they were a pretty tacky green, lol. The white LED's on my rear 120mm look quite neutral, and they look great with my Centurion 5. Its different from the norm of blue.

Eclecticos · May 5, 2008

Multicolor green and yellow, or RGB's

Red! WAYYYYY TO many blue computers out there. red is sexy :cool:

SirKeldon · May 5, 2008

Blue ... blue ... and blue ... and not cause it's the most common colour, it's cause i love blue since i was a kid ... and the first time i saw a fan with blue lights i felt in love ... though the red ones are pretty cool.

But i'll be clear at one thing, never green, i'm so sick and tired of seeing green-or-yellow-leds all around the home, at Hi-Fi, microwaves, fridge, DVD player, television and in some cases on the PC activity leds ... it's most common than the blue ...

:toast:

pagalms · May 5, 2008

RGB for me. I've swapped my keyboard's reciever green leds with RGB and they looks kickass when colors are changing

Darknova · May 5, 2008

Blue/Purple. I'd love a black PCB motherboard with purple LEDs on the back. I'd prefer my Lanfest to have Purple LEDs on the bottom, instead of blue. And then a few blue cathodes to give it a nice blue glow

What I REALLY want though, is to laser etch a pattern through the side panel, with acrylic backing, and either white, or blue LEDs around the acrylic

Just can't decide what pattern to get done

commandercup · May 5, 2008

everyone knows blue is everywhere... but why? because its the best lol :roll:
