Default Red or Blue Fans

I will be getting a Cosmos S case (as evidenced in the sig.) And want an opinion as to whether I get blue fans and lights to theme the case, or red instead. I know there already is a red fan included, but I can change it out. Keep in mind I will be using a fan controller.

Fan recommendations are welcome. 120mm. 3 pin connector.

Your help is appreciated!

I would go for red unless you really like blue, but I think blue is overused in everything.

I don't like when people use blue for their Cosmos S, the Cosmos S was designed to be red in my opinion (front panel and power button is red).

It's a matter of personal preference; but blue has become way too common these days for case lighting
