I'm going to build a new computer and I'm gonna get an Antec Performance PlusView 1000AMG. I want to put a cold cathode lite in it. What color should i get?

BTW, my power suply has a blue LED in its fan. Do you think a mix of blue and red would be cool?

The cold cathode light will be much brighter than the LED in the fan and the red will most likely over-power the blue.

Also, cold cathodes are not the same color as there led counterparts. I bought a blue cold cathode and its more of a purple.

Probably getting fans with blue led's would be a better idea.

I have a Blue Cold cathode and 4 Blue LED fans...for normal use the fans make a soft glow inside the case....if I want it brighter I flip the cold cathode switch. When the cold cathode is on, however, you can't see the lights from the LED fans.

I much prefere one uniform colour rather than multiple colours. CCT's as they said are different colours. I had two blue led fans and they were about the same colour (deep purple) but my CCT makes them completly go away as its much brighter and its also lighter like a teal colour.

3 blue led fans light up my case fine, but i think that I am going to get a small red cold cathode and put it on the bottom.
