Question Pick my case light color/s

Hello, I am going to be ordering some l.e.d.s or cold cathodes tonight or tomorrow for my newly modded case. I wanted to see what color/or combination of colors you guys think would look best. I want something different than the generic blue. I left out some colors and color combinations that I defenetly would not like. Most likely I will also add a few UV lights inside the case as well as any other light/s.

Here is a pic of my case:

some red LEDs to accent parts or maybe some strong UV cathodes and do a UV pen mod

my 2 cents.

Of the choices listed, I went with Blue and Yellow.

If I had my choice I would go Blue and Red.

Consider the color spectrum and what the combined light frequencies will do to eachother insofar as bleeding: Color Wheel

Perhaps that is too analytical, but you may want to consider the color combination so you don't end up with "Baby-poo-green".... unless you like Baby-poo green.

Hmmm... now that I consider my choice, that green may be the outcome.

J/k.. I play... I play.

Ok I need to make a decision now, It is between these two color combos...




(photoshopped.. obviously there will be some color blending between the two lights.)

I like both combinations quite a bit, what do you guys think.

Alrite Well I just completely decide that I am going to order both green and red cold cathodes. I am going to try and figure out how I can get both the green and red cathodes in the at the same time. That way I can switch between the two, or make some unique color combinations.

*List of Parts*
1 ~ Logisys ~ Cold Cathode Kit ~ 12" ~ Blue
1 ~ Logisys ~ Cold Cathode Kit ~ 12" ~ Red
1 ~ Logisys ~ Cold Cathode Kit ~ 12" ~ UV
4 ~ Logisys ~ Cold Cathode Kit ~ 4" ~ Green
1 ~ Logisys ~ Cold Cathode Kit ~ 4" ~ UV
2 ~ Logisys ~ Case Fan ~ 120mm ~ Green
2 ~ Logisys ~ Case Fan ~ 120mm ~ Red

Total:$76.50 with tax and shipping


... 8 Cold Cathodes in one CM690?? We Shall See...
