Default Do you think it'll look good?
Okay, so I have an Antec case, so I have blue 120mm fan in the very bottom front of it. I was wondering if it'd look cool or hella bad if I added a green UV Ultra PSU in my case on the other side up there (up back). Do you think the blue and green will marry well?

Blue and green usually look good together. I say go for it.

Yeah, I tried a green and blue setup, and it did not work out... to say the least. So I just went blue and purple, and now it looks kickin!

Well, I personally have a green and blue theme and love it. Green cold cathodes, green water in my cooling, UV cold cathodes, a bunch of UV reactive blue wire loom and slot covers, and a blue PSU...

Like I said, I love it, but you should give it a shot. It's all about taste.

There is the saying "Blue and Green should never be seen..." but in the lighting world it is about balance and contrast... and to be fully effective needs a black background... look at the theatre or stage shows, they use these and Black-art with great effect..

Will come down to the Hue and saturation of these colours and their placement.
