    No, don't be silly there is nothing racist about this post you filthy minded fool!

    Its about what case I should get, I have been looking at the Silverstone Sugo SG02 and its perfect size for what I need (some people may know about my build plans) I have a bit of a pain in the ass decision in what colour case to go for. I was going to water cool the contents of the rig with a see through set-up and use purple coloured dye in the system. The thing I was wondering is, should I go for the black or the white case?!

    Someone help me, I have only found one rig with the colours I like on the net so I don't know whether it will look good!

    Black. Simple case of having to find white everything after is the reason why I would never go for white.

    agree'd i was thinking about a raven-rv02 in white but the black wires, screen, keyboard, mouse, speakers and printer it would just look daft

    Black will go with everything.
    White... nothing will go with it, and won't be nice on your desk.

    i'm liking white right now. i'm in the middle of a scratch build with white as the primary color. i will say though that finding after market parts is a real B*TCH! especially finding fans that have white leds that don't look really blue or pink (akasa pearls are good looking). there may be some more variety though if you have purple as a second choice for those things you can't find in white.

    Oh, and there's a reason why apple chose white for it's products, so that just in case you weren't a big enough fan boy of the apple logo, you pretty much have no choice when all the overpriced accessories, just happen to be in white :p

    White.
    I am in the middle of a scratch-built case and I'm using white as primary with red-sleeved cables as an accent colour.
    Depending on the quality of that case the white might be less prone to get scratches and the black might attract more dust. And vice versa of course.

    Not true, having a big white case and black peripherals actually makes a nice colour scheme.

    Black......It will not look out of place anywhere.

    Unless your an apple fanboy that has white everything everywhere in which case go for the i-air/mac/pro/book/sh**/bake/talk/run/throw.......whatever the hell they call there things these days. All i know is it starts with an "i". Still curious as to how they havent come out with the i-mcrap yet..... :p

    Back on topic........The black is fkin sexy.

    Looking at my macbook, i'd say black... discolouration of white surfaces (through heat, dirt, yellowing with age) is an ugly thing.

    I'll be honest... that case is god awful. My work has one of those as a production PC, and it is the cheapest, flimsiest piece of tack I've ever seen.
