i am getting tons of new hardware for my case. new mobo new graphics card new water cooling system. i am wondering what color i should paint my case? sorry i dont have any pics but it really looks like just another case. it started out yellow then i painted it black/orange. now i am thinking of painting it the case red, with the inside white, and white liquid n such.

It would really help us if we knew what the case was to start with... especially with the mod advice...

mod my case...what case? you know...

I really like UV liquid that accents a painted interior... my color scheme is a black exterior with a candy blue coloured interior along with alot of blue LED fans/and soem blue CCFLs. and then my liquid is dyed UV blue, and reacts to my UV CCFLs and makes my case Really cool @ night/in the dark (at least thats my opinion )

As for colors, are you into your zodiac? As for us Scorpio's, crimson red (passion) and black (serious) are our colors. Maybe your zodiac colorswill apeal to you. Also, check out CyberDruid's Antec 900 mod for some ideas for moding. Somewhere in here he also has an Antec 900 painted in red/black, so check that out. Just type cyberdruid antec 900 or something like that into the search box and you should find them.
