I am getting a NZXT 630 window case and I am wandering if I should get the white or red one? Reason being I am getting LED's to go with it and I am wandering what case will work best?
 
Solution
Unless you're in a rush, parts always go on sale eventually (except high end GPUs, which at end of production go up in price because people rush to SLI/Crossfire)

That's a matter of opinion. if you get a white case it will reflect light and help illuminate creating a veritable lighthouse out of your gaming tower. If you want a more understated glow, you would go with darker colored cases that don't match the color of the leds.

Additionally consider the color scheme of your setup. If you already have case fan leds, GPU lights, gaming keyboard/mouse maybe you want to match those colors. Maybe you want to show off a little national pride and go with your flag colors?

Really, it's your case, just make sure you keep illumination within comfortable boundaries and you should be fine if you don't pick colors you find ugly.

Well the case I want has a price cut of 30 dollars, problem is its not the white one, I'm trying to see if its worth to wait for the white one to be on sale or buy the black one now.
