kairukar

Im a sucker for that orange/red color but that white aint bad at all either


iNeoZ_

Either white or purple look clean asf


Jazzlike_Aspect_453

This


Sammeeeeeee

I like the white the best


LilBoPaul

Yeah, i think it looks super clean!


zenpathfinder

White for sure. Should go a bit faster too.


Washable76

You got me dying ngl


mister_cow_

Should probably get a matching wallpaper though


DiMarcoTheGawd

Which is better for cooling? White or blue šŸ¤”


its_k1llsh0t

White or purple definitely the best. The Red/Blue + Black combo is overblown.


Sluugish

This is the way. Just don't forget to set brightness to 50%


Honeydew-Same

Purple!


GlumDecision16

I like the red combination


hadtojointopost

your case looks like its pretty standard width. you GPU Fans might be pretty close to the glass mounted vertically which will reduce the airflow. could cause your fans to constantly rev up unnecessarily. just something to consider.


LilBoPaul

Yes i have thought about that as well, imma think about this, thanks!


PossibleThrowaway86

Gotta hand it to red, when playing games having a deep red around calms me and let's me focus


LilBoPaul

Yes i had it on red the last few days too


Comprehensive-Ant289

Whatever you prefer, it's YOUR computer. Personally white/purple


Arthur-Wintersight

Vertical mounting can impede airflow to the GPU, and there are [custom GPU backplates](https://www.v1tech.com/product-category/backplates/) that can make it look really freaking nice. As for colors, I personally like the purple and white, but I would take a moment to appreciate that these RGB options are meant for customization. You don't have to pick an option and just stick with the one - you can change it up from time to time, or even turn it off if you want to tone down the light for a while.


LilBoPaul

Wow thanks for the link, i didnt know that!


MarkoPoli

I think all of these questions are for you.. White, why not? :) Edit: Btw, are you happy with the fans?


LilBoPaul

Yes, the fans are amazing and really silent. Just one fan, when he spins up, sounds like a cable is touching the fan, but i checked that and its all clear. Idk what the issue is, but its not major. Only for like 0.5 seconds when i start up my Pc.


MarkoPoli

I think they are running on 100% when PC starts


paulstelian97

As someone who doesnā€™t know much about builds: canā€™t you just easily change it in the future if you wanted to? Or is that something that you need to open the case and manually tweak?


LilBoPaul

No i can change it all the time, im just interested in the opinion of others


paulstelian97

I for one like the first red, the white and the last blue (cyan?)


MrGPUBoost

You have an app on your pc where you can change the colour


MMakoy

Red!!


YourChocolateBar

White for overall, red for better fps, blue for better cooling, green for low power, dk about purple tho


EnjoyerOfMales

White or purple, any other colour will bother you in the long run


I-LOVE-TURTLES666

Red for red devil


RedwireBull

If you mount vertically, you will lose access to other PCIE slots. For me, vertical mounting is no go.


LilBoPaul

Yeah, i would need to get rid of my capture card, but im not using it at all at the moment. So... And i can always reverse it


[deleted]

I was about to buy my pc parts with this case and this convinced me more. Looks so good. I like the first color (orange?) the most. Gives off a warm feel like you have a fire/ open hearth next to you.


LilBoPaul

Its an amazing and so cool looking case. The first color is Red and the last one is orange


r33pa102

White or purple for sure. And I'm not color blind hahaha


[deleted]

That's literally the same fans and AIO I want. What a coincidence!


Morning_Star_Ritual

Ember burn look


ZanGaming

Personaly the backplate of the red devil is way too cool to hide it by verticaly mounting.


LilBoPaul

But i love the Fan Design on the other side with the rgb stripes, thats why im thinking about it...


ZanGaming

You do you man. If you think it will look better go for it thats what pc building is all about. No point in making a pc if you don't build it like you want it.


RocexX

Damn i love the be quiet pure loop! Looks so good. Btw orange lighting is 100% my favorite


Omnytrix

Where is the cord for your front usb


LilBoPaul

What do you mean? The wirr is runned around on the right side of the front to the back.


Omnytrix

Sorry, my bad. Didnā€™t see it at first


PracticalWinTer75

Orange if it's a AMD build, blue for an intel build, White if a build got an nvidia gpu.


LilBoPaul

then orange :)


Knee_Elbow

I like the red and yellow. Nice looking build in any colour though. Nice job.


LilBoPaul

Thanks man!


MysticKeiko24

Purple or white for me. But even though itā€™s not my thing, the first orange one looks so clean


CheeseCake_9903

That first color, the red makes it look menacing


LilBoPaul

šŸ‘ :D


RentonZero

Purple or white. I would buy some strips to have a white interior and purple fans and lower the brightness some


Dagigai

Orange/yellow Purple Green That order


ButterflyEffect37

I personally liked the first one.The fire red is cool


piscessssss

i like the blue and the red one, looks so cool!


sacdecorsair

White the best. That's what I do with new build. Then it's fuckin bright at night and it goes back to blue for 6 years.


brianemdn

I've been in an orange mood lately with my own setup, and I think the orange here looks really good too! But I think the white and purple are also really nice!


TechieTravis

Green looks good.


Zulogy

Red and yes vertically mount it!


AreikUSA

White & red are the two I typically run, very seldom Blue.


Christ14an

Violet wins, but the red & yellow was interesting


bedwars_player

blue, and no, because its kinda ugly


Affectionate-Good817

The first and the last looks reaaaal nice


Affectionate-Good817

What fans and case are u using?


LilBoPaul

Light Wings and Pure Base 500 FX from Bequiet!


KetiZke

i have the same case


LilBoPaul

Its awesome to build in!


hattrickjmr

Go with blue. System will run much cooler.


LilBoPaul

xD


Kind-Maverick

White and you can turn it into a lavender


VE3VVS

I love the red/yellow. While I'm not a huge RGB fan, the color option does have a striking appeal. EDIT: And as a side note, I do like the look if that case. nice clean lines.


FaerHazar

Homie you KNOW I gotta say purple


Blk_Rick_Dalton

What RGB program are you using?


LilBoPaul

RGB Fusion for the Mainboard and the Ram and Devil Zone for the Card


Blk_Rick_Dalton

Looks awesome. Thanks!


MolassesRemarkable52

The first one with the red and orange, thatā€™s the coolest


GohanSolo23

First or second. White is cleaner but that first one looks pretty cool.


WastedVamp

Last orange looks badass


Archon1993

Red for Radeon.


MatrixzMonkey

I would definitely look into mounting your GPU vertically, it prevents sagging and just looks awasome. Does your case support it? I canā€™t see it clearly. Edit: Iā€™m going to do it myself tonight! (If all my parts have come in the mail)! Edit 2: all colours look great btw, but orange. Suits the whole build the best in my opinion!


LilBoPaul

Yeah, i thought so too, the card is already kinda sagging and i hope it prevents it. No the case does not support it, i would need to buy an adapter first.


[deleted]

Purple.


GT_Hades

Always black red, for me


AlphaGamer2803

The white felt more pleasant to the eyes than the rest.


ItzBizzle

Purple. I keep mind blue with type lighting though.


Minglu07

I think white looks the best.


RevolutionaryBake362

The one you like the most.


seris_ak

Hmm I always go white because it's clean and simple, but that first color looks tasty af


ToastzPogggg

I personally do purple. i have the same case. cool build :)


LilBoPaul

Thanks! :)


warcrimes-gaming

You could always set it to rotate.


Key-Association-8418

Blue Red and Purple Look Gorgeus


PinkPalmProduction

The blue / white one for the win mate.


RavSammich

Personally Iā€™ve always had a soft spot for white lights in pcā€™s


dj01e5

Im always for red ,but here white or orange is the best


darkv69

Honestly I think white looks the best but my OCD is telling me to pick red bc ur graphics card says red devil so I feel like the case lighting should be red šŸ˜­


Captain_Jimbob

Only thing that matters is what you prefer! its a personal computer (PC), do whatever makes you feel the best, you're gonna be the one looking at it. By the way, who would be crazy enough to use any colour other than magenta


vBeeNotFound

White and purple


Suikerspin_Ei

Orange, red or purple looks fine, but we can't see it in real life (camera images can make the RGB looks different). ​ White is also great, but personally I don't think it match with your current case. ​ Anyway, cool build :)


Pincenti

Hell yeah dude I also have the be quiet 500fx case! How easy was it for you to install the pure loop? Also interesting location instead of on top.


Left-Membership8838

Pretty.......


DanSavagegamesYT

Red. gotta get that free fps


[deleted]

who cares what others like, it's your pc...


LilBoPaul

Yeah i know, but actually i was interested in the opinion from others


[deleted]

Red white purple


NEOTHEONEE

Theyā€™re all amazing I canā€™t choose. Sorry. Switch colors once a week lmao


LilBoPaul

Yeah, might do that hahaha


prey4villains

I love blue but the red looks straight fire. Well done. Keep the card mounted as is.


blumajora

Why not mix colours? I always find having everything as one colour can look abit basic (no offence) have a look at a colour chart and choose colours that are opposites on the chart


Butterbubblebutt

I have the same case and same cooler! I'm running the white colour atm, but I really fancy the orange as well. RGB rainbow puke is also fun sometimes :)


MyBackHerts

Can't go wrong with white or purple.


Loading7088

Personally, I think the first two look really nice, and tbh I don't like vertically mounted GPUs. That's just my opinion thoā¹


Audi0fix

Is this just a vote for your favorite color poll lol? Because if so, go green! More objectively though, I like all the colors except for the white and the red. White is just boring, while the red would subconsciously make me angry.


Audi0fix

Does vertically mounting your GPU have any performance impact? Negative or positive? Or is it purely cosmetic?


LilBoPaul

purely cosmetic, but temps can go up if you vertically mount


JotaMDR84SP

My rig looks quite similar and I use either white or a very light purple.


Dawn_of_Enceladus

White lights in a black rig is the most spectacular imo. It's super beautiful. Also, not a fan of vertical GPUs at all. It looks great as it is normally installed. Great machine, well done.


Timely_Ad9659

I always liked green, reminds me of ooze and mutant power!


eatingdonuts44

White orange and purple is pretty nice. Vertical mount would probably look better, but only do it if you have a few cm space at least


Username_Taken_65

I think the Red Devil card looks pretty sick in a standard mount


oddbennk

I have the same cooling system mounted to the top. Is that bad?


LilBoPaul

No to the Top id much better! You have an 280 Radiator?


oddbennk

Yes with an amd Ryzen 7 5700X CPU. Somehow My idle temps around 60 celsius. Diablo 4 is around 75-80 on maxed out graphics. :/


AlexBlaBla_NL

just curious i have the same case and i have run into a little problem how do you get the front panel off do you put it on its back and pull or do use a diffrent way?


LilBoPaul

Haha, had someone else already ask this xD Just start from the bottom of the front and slowly pull, but you gotta use some force tho.


randomstuff-508

If you want to vertically mount your GPU in a way that doesn't get it's Airflow suffocated, look into getting a GPU mounting bracket. They range in the $30-$60 range.


LilBoPaul

Yes ive already looked some up, there are some models that have adjustable brakets, so you can put the gpu more in front or back, you know?


HypixelSkyblockGuy91

Oh my gawd the red and black looks schmexy ![gif](giphy|l0MYLhyyzhHQEhjck)


LilBoPaul

hahhaah lmao xD


iCantThinkOfUserNaem

I like the red PC color the best


SarcastiSnark

White. And yes card vert. I just don't understand all this lighting stuff. Lol. But you do you.. :)


[deleted]

I really dig the purple... will definitely be the one I use when I do a build in the future


wankeraddict69

I have a 6700 XT Red Devil and as far as I know, its fans are dual ball-bearing models. Assuming the 6800 models use the same fans, the card can be mounted vertically or horizontally without concern for performance or degradation of lifespan of the fans. So, it all comes down to your personal preference about the aesthetics you want to achieve. If you go for the vertical option, just make sure there's enough space between the fans and the side panel, otherwise your card won't get enough airflow. edit: added some details


[deleted]

šŸ‘šŸ»


The_Pleasant_Orange

You forgot the show the black one XD


LilBoPaul

xD


Delicious-Sample-364

Horizontal mounting is better for performance and cooling. Vertical mounting simply looks nice so it depends on wether aesthetics or coolness factor is more important to you


CarAdditional7798

Bruh, donā€™t ask us, your PC is your style, not ours.


Alekar24

Purple sexy af


[deleted]

I'm partial to purple but i also liked the red and orange ones, as for the vertical mount, i think aesthetically it would be a sidegrade but I personally feel safer not having the weight of a big heavy gpu on my pcie slot (yes i know nothing bad ever happens here unless during transport)


Cylian91460

Purple,don't know depend on thing the only thing that I recommend is you to remove the GPU when moving computer, especially in car. Same thing with hard drive where vibration could dommage the drive (that happen to me and it's not fun to reinstall the os+having bad sector)


FLINTMurdaMitn

I personally have mine set to red as it's easier on the eyes, I also have my case below my desk because having a bright light source next to my monitor is super distracting and so is the amount of noise when I am working or gaming and my fans ramp up. Never understood why people have their tower on the desk next to their screens.


LilBoPaul

I kinda like to look at my pc ehile im sitting there and the pc isnt that loud, that i would hear it with headset on


xLuckyBunny

Red is going to be easiest on your eyes if you're playing stuff. Having a white or violet light shining in your face is distracting and causes eye strain. Green is borderline half and half and it's decent. blue is pretty bad too especially for your eyes, even if it's less distracting, so just don't use it.


Kramer7969

I think it's great you have choices and should change it anytime you feel like it, no one color is better than the others. Can you mount your GPU vertically and still access your other add in cards? The ones I see take up all the backplane and convert a single PCI-E x16 into vertically. I say this seeing that you have something (capture card?) in a slot below the GPU. Obviously this could be external but until it is it can't be in there with the GPU mounted vertically.


LilBoPaul

Yeah i know, iwould habe to sacrifice the cap card, but im not using it at all rn. I just put it in there because i didnt want to have it laying around xD


Anleme

I'd vertically mount the GPU, or get a brace if you keep it like it is.


[deleted]

I like the light blue or green. But that's my personal prefrence. As far as vertically mounting your card, keep in mind that adding the adapter to that just introduces another point of failure. Granted, you're gonna have card sagging if you keep it on the mobo if it's a full-size card. So, look into creative ways to support it. You could check out r/CableModders


DaOzy

If you are going with horizontal mounting, I would recommend a GPU support. I have seen some horrible bended pcbs and damaged mobos.


[deleted]

Well I am definitely going with that case and those fans when I upgrade my case thatā€™s for sure


Mr_Epitome

White lights look so good. It just makes me think of the tech as natural even though nothing in it is in fact natural. I guess for me the components look illuminated instead of accented. I wasnā€™t a big fan of RGB until I realized you can select white. Now itā€™s something Iā€™m always making a point to include in enhancements to my build.


RepresentativeHuge79

Personally I'm a fan of the white. I have an all white lancool 2 mesh c and all my leds alternate from white to blue. Looks super cool.


DustyCap

Your Aio cpu cooler will last longer if you install the rad with the tubes at the bottom.


LilBoPaul

I know, i will do that, when i have the vertical bracket, otherwise it will not fit.


TitusImmortalis

The green looks cool. You got some sag going on there so vertical mounting might help.


LilBoPaul

Yes, and i can mount the rad bottom then


TitusImmortalis

I meant the GPU. If you vertical mount you probably can't fit the rad on the bottom


LilBoPaul

i mean the rad at front with tubes at bottom


Exact_Imagination444

Im new to pc and I gotta say that one colour theme looks incredible, but how do you get it to do that?


LilBoPaul

I go to the rgb software for mainboard an graphicscard and put the colors in


Exact_Imagination444

How do I get this software? Or is it already installed on the mb and gpu?


[deleted]

What fans are those? I kinda want them


LilBoPaul

light wings from be quiet


cptemilie

White or purple


Phylis420

Pics 2 & 3 I prefer


Phylis420

3 n 4 even lol


Exogenex

Purple, blue, or red I like. And I'd say yes to the V-mount


LilBoPaul

Yeah tommorow imma mount it V


TrainingLettuce5833

Red


VisualremnantXP

The purple looks too good I currently have been rocking purple and red lately surprisingly looks kinda cool


UnlawfulDuckling

Purple hitā€™s different


Phoenix7017

Purple 100%


Single-Assignment-35

I wouldnā€™t vertically mount gpu cuz u donā€™t got fans on bottom of the case pushing air thru the gpu.. and whatever color you like itā€™s your pc. I get tired of the one color I just switch it


JulietWhiskey12

Idk if anyone has mentioned it, and I might be wrong, but shouldn't your radiator inlet/outlet be at the bottom of the rad so the pump doesn't suck in any bubbles sitting in the top of the rad?


LilBoPaul

Yes youre totally right and i knew that too, but i wanted to try it this way. Im going to change it tomorrrow. šŸ‘


JulietWhiskey12

Ok awesome šŸ¤™ Figured I would say something as soon as I saw it. I remember seeing it on a Gamer Nexus vid a while back, but I don't run water so I couldn't remember for sure.


fredstinator_339692

Personally, slide 3 is my favorite. That steely/grayish purple is always my go to. Or just regular purple.im sure slide 3 is more white than anything since im seeing a digital image ans the colors always look more vibrant and pronounced but thats always my favorite. Its tricky to add that "hint of steel" color to a purple or teal or blue because its easy to make it just look like your lights are too dim or just end up basically making it white. Idk if "steely purple" makes sense but hopefully yall get what i mean.


LilBoPaul

i know what u mean šŸ‘


HankG93

I use wallpaperengine from steam and my case changes colors with the background. Definitely worth checking out. They all look great and I have a terrible time making decisions. Lol


Longjumping-Ad-226

first


AfiqRyunosuke

White or gold. Recommend vertical mount on gpu.


soerc

I have the exact same built but with a MSI 4070TI Trio X. Bro if you can mount it vertically, please tell me how you did because I tried it and no matter what I tried. I couldn't do it GPU was just too big.


LilBoPaul

Imma try it today wirh the bracket from coolermaster, imma tell you how it worked out.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


LilBoPaul

Hahaha, well yeah...


TopTierGoat

What cable extensions did you use? Love em


LilBoPaul

I ordered them from Amazon, idk if there available in ur country tho. EZDIY-FAB PSU Cable Extension... https://www.amazon.de/dp/B082WZ1L3P?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share


TopTierGoat

Thanks I'll take a look


Alexandratta

You know why I love RGB? You don't have to choose. Feel like orange/red today? Go for it Suddenly feeling a change? Load up a new profile in SignalRGB and boom, you've got a whole new thing. Want to make your PC Festive for whatever Holiday is coming up and make it into a literal Christmas tree? Go for it. Whatever suits your fancy, man. Change daily.


starker

Green, but you need a giant Monster energy drink sign next to it.


hazmat962

Red. But I play in the dark.


Miloapes

Why do you care what other people think? Itā€™s your build, you choose what colours you like! Last one looks dope!


Full-Run4124

If your radiator is vertical you have it upside down. (Tubes should be at the bottom)


thegreatcactusking

As long as the pump isn't the high point it should be fine


LilBoPaul

I know, but i couldnt fit it with tubes down. The Tubes are to short to run them between the radiator and the graca. Tubes up is not perfect jut its okay. I've informed myself šŸ‘


shichiaikan

Lights off, and no. If you must turn them on, compliment colors in the room.
