Seeing as im more than likley going to be investing in the NZXT Phantom when its released, ive been kicking around the idea of building a PC made entirely of black or white parts to match the case.

Had a quick browse through Aria's shop and couldnt see many parts that would match my current spec using only black or white parts however a quick google shown a fair bit.

without linking to competitors could you kind souls post some specs/pics of stuff i might be able to use?



i`ll start it off with a white PSU:

Be Quiet Special Edition white 600W Modular PSU

I don't think there are any black and/or white motherboards, or at least none that spring to mind...

i think it would hide dust a little better than black, i suppose if it all goes well we might find out :)

only thing you could do is spray a mobo white :) which is doable but hard

Theres a sapphire board iirc that was white.

(It also wasnt very good, it had an ati chipset)

Sharkoon do black and white case fans (they're quite good fans too incidentally)

Be Quiet Special Edition is nice and is only £60 when compared to what i paid for a BQ 650w its a bargain

doesnt look very nice in white - might have to go down the "dark" colour route for the motherboard
