If you honestly trade a GTS for a GT in order to "match" I move for a perma-ban from the tech section.
That's were taste comes in the picture. One likes rainbows, other like color-coordinated. If you have a closed case it s not a big deal bit when you have a window in your case and you go to contests, you want something classy.
That is fucking retarded, and so are you. People will not think you are cool for having a matching PC, they will think you are a fucking idiot for downgrading your GPU just to have a matching PC. Its a fucking computer, not clothing, not your bedroom. People dont give a shit about "matching colors" Youre wasting money instead of buying another GTS or something else. You will not see the color of the GTS either way on an ATX case.

Was that a four-line sentence without any punctation or commas at all? Holy fuck!

Anyhow, caring about your PC looks is ok, adding some fancy LEDs and shit is ok, having an engraved glass door is ok, but actually downgrading your computer for such a thing as colour-co-ordination is just plain stupid. A green PCB will look just as a red PCB under blue-ish lights. If the light applied is blue, the red PCB won't reflect anything, since it doesn't reflect blue very good, and it will appear as black. Same with green lights.

Here, a green and a red card under blue light. Can you spot the differance?

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

On, to the OP, this is a stupid idea. Buy 10-15 LEDs of the same color, and your case will look uniform.

Holy crap this is one of the most retarded thing I've ever heard.

Go ahead and tell the people at your next "contest" that you maxed out your color coordination options at the cost of performance and see how much respect you get.  I'm guessing none, unless there are PC beauty contests that I don't know about. 

Who the hell buys internal PC parts for the look of the PCB?  If it was anyone but you, nvidia, et. al. would make a mint on different silk screens for their PCBs.

this thread is like... lol wut?
Lets clear up few things...

If YOU don't care what your pc looks like, then continue not to care ffs.
If YOU do care, then do what you want. (buy nice looking parts etc. and be happy you got nice looking rig.)

Edit: and I do care. I wouldn't buy some shit brown/fugly parts if I could get better looking ones for the same price.

If you want your PC to look nice you dont even need to buy the processor! Just put the cooler over the socket, no one will even notice its not there. But make sure the chipset cooler of the mobo looks nice.
