So is 2016 going to be the year of the LED or something? At this rate you'll be able to get LEDs on every component inside your rig!

Pretty sure that is already possible

Case - check.
PSU - check.
Mobo - check.
RAM - well, check.
GPU - check.
Coolers - check.
SSD - almost, Avexir tried, but seemed to have failed to get a crowdfunder to work for that.

Personally dont see any problem with RGB or LEDs in a computer case or on specific pieces of hardware since you dont HAVE to use those LEDs. Most of the time you have an off switch option within the software so if you dont want it, dont use it type of deal. Personally I love the option of having things light up if I so choose; rather have it then be without it.

But at the end of the day you do pay for it though..

Back in den Dark old these when only some crazy Case Fans and Cathodes where availabile Neon blue we wished we had those LEDs going on

But seriously im totally with Darkdayzzz, you can easely switch them of and i dont think that they cost that much if any extra.

Is the Interior the same like the LPX ?

 

[Dawelio]

Why only red and white though?... Come on, atleast make them RGB!

 

[Dorset Yid]

Ten years ago LEDs on RAM was an option, then it disappeared, now its back. Go Figure

Beat me to it. Why should I pay a premium on something that is nothing but immature tacky lighting which I will disable anyway.

They arent going to quit producing the LPX Version so no one has to buy the LED ones i guess.

can't say the same about GPUS though.

Good Point, we shall see. I personally like the LED Option but limited to one Color makes no sense if everone else lets you choose from a ton of options.
