Where exactly is it going to go in the case... is it that white block..? :S

If so, I would go for black, because it looks like you would still be able to see the coolant inside while keeping the case paint job uniform.

My opinion is that the black would look much more conservative while the clear would show off the color. Personally I would go with the black.

Does the flow have to go through that paddle wheel thing? Thats going to be pretty restrictive just to watch that thing spin. So I vote for neither one..
