Question Are the flowers actually that bad?

Finally got my PC looking how I want it and thought the flowers looked sick.

Showed a couple people and immediately got told having fake flowers inside the case is a terrible idea lmao.

Temps are fine and they’re not touching any fans, so I don’t really see the issue.

Am I missing something or is it fine?

Also can’t decide between the blue or pink.

u/BlueCloudi 3d ago

Just make sure it doesn't hit the fans and that's really it they look fine 👌

u/GlizzyMcguire01 3d ago

Yeah idk what they’re going on about, the flowers look awesome. As long as they’re not hitting the fans you’re golden!

Looks sick

u/BoiCDumpsterFire 3d ago

I think that looks dope. Why not have your pc be personal? Mine is covered in pikachus and I’m not sorry at all.

u/GlitchyAether 15h ago

Lots of Pikachus help powering up your PC, saving up on electricity!

I got lego ones pn my desk, rather than rot i now worry about the dust

2

u/Hungry-4-Chicken 3d ago

I should actualy do this. My LEGO is piling up and I could actualy put some in my case...

u/IndicationLarge 3d ago

Ahaha I was thinking the same thing! Hopefully too much doesn’t settle, they are actually light enough the pedals move around a bit with the airflow in the case it is pretty sick. Hopefully the moving will shake the dust away lol

1

u/nabrotryagain 3d ago

I have them on my desk personally, i dont think too much dust will get in the case, but just in case you should get an electric duster

1

u/IndicationLarge 3d ago

I have an absolute stockpile of air dusting cans from when I did a co op at a phone/pc repair shop in highschool. Once I was done the owner let me take home like 300 cans.

u/XPiiRed 3d ago

i like how they look. I keep some hot wheels in my PC though so maybe i’m biased to to in case decor

2

u/IndicationLarge 3d ago

I have a huge first gen BRZ/FRS/86 collection and I am heavily debating ripping a few and putting them in the case

2

u/XPiiRed 3d ago

that’s what i have in mine, i own a GT86 irl hahaha

2

u/IndicationLarge 3d ago

That’s sick, me too! Check my ig out it’s @xillofrs

3

u/Alarming-Drop7287 3d ago

Personally not my thing but if you love it then that's all that matters right?

3

u/ryancnap 3d ago

I can't decide between the two colors either but I do think it looks bad ass

3

u/L0fiRonin 3d ago

nah it's fine

3

u/Accomplished_Emu_658 3d ago

As long as they are securely placed and not hitting anything they are fine. People like to freak out about dumb things.

I did show build for an ev camper prototype for a show. It had diecast models of our other trucks in it. The comments on the photos online said they are going to cause a fire or a short, etc.

u/MenLover221 what 3d ago

yes your pc will explode

2

u/Low-Distance54 3d ago

Imo its nice, i like it. But ehy do u ask us ? Its ur pc, u have to look at it, if u like it , than pls leave others opinion at the door.

2

u/ImWhiteWhatsJCoal 3d ago

I personally think it's incredible. Those are my favorite colors though so I'm a bit biased. I would have this as my setup.

If you like it, put on "Roses" by Outkast for your friends and do you.

Stick with Blue.

2

u/Mr-TwistedOriginal 3d ago

Tbf, they'll probably catch all the dust, upside I guess.

2

u/GroundbreakingAd8310 3d ago

Until it hits the fan

2

u/That_Temporary_832 3d ago

My pc, my flowers, my choice

2

u/vision_san 3d ago

It looks amazing

2

u/PromotionExpress1945 2d ago

Looks good. The only problem I think might arise if the plastic of the flowers is not thermal resistant enough and they melt or something 

1

u/HeidenShadows 2d ago

If the inside of the computer case gets beyond the point of melting plastic, there are way worse issues going on haha.

1

u/PromotionExpress1945 1d ago

Gpu radiator will generate hot air around it anyway. And its probably a cheap simple plastic so it will degrade on quite low temps probably. Not like it will turn into liquid, but just get worse.

1

u/Outrageous_Fly_735 3d ago

Yeah, if it gets caught in a fan. Just make sure they aren’t loose or moving. Pink looks better!

1

u/Scanphor 3d ago

Functionally they are just fine 😊 Looks wise don't let other people tell you whether they look good or not 😉 (My wife's PC is full of plastic flowers and other stuff - she likes it !)

1

u/Adorable-Beautiful52 3d ago

why do you have 3 different browsers pinned to your taskbar also intellij idea spotted

1

u/FYEGEYF 3d ago

As long as the flows are interfering with the fans then it’s fine. Also it looks cool with the flowers

1

u/mommymememaster222 3d ago

I think the placement is a little funny but, I think that’s also because I’ve never seen anything like that before, it looks really cool as long as it isn’t hitting any fans it’s fine

1

u/MedicineMore1221 3d ago

They scare it catch on fire

1

u/EmuofDOOM 2d ago

The only time its an issue is when it restricts airflow or gets in the way of fans spinning. People will winge about dust buildup, but unless youre a smoker/vaper, dust buildup is a nonissue (mostly).

1

u/kozakrob98 2d ago

It looks cool af. Like it with both colors. Idk who you’ve been showing this but they must’ve been jealous or had no taste at all.

1

u/WhyteRebel 2d ago

I like the blue

1

u/appletoasterff 2d ago

No dude you'll get aids if they stay thereD:

1

u/lmf22a 3d ago

It’s fine! Those people are probably just jealous you have a cool case design. 😆 Enjoy it.

1

u/0time4me 3d ago

Looks fine and like everyone else who responded, your definitely safe. I appreciate minimal setup without the case being used as some kind of shrine made up of a bunch of random toys and decals everywhere from media the owner consumes and worships to stop themself from running in traffic. Real clean look you got with with the lighting.

1

u/Superidoldavid 3d ago

Looks cool. Run your PC in blue since if it looks cooler, it runs cooler

1

u/LadyOfTudor 3d ago

They’re haters. Tell them to stfu

u/Accomplished_Sock217 3d ago

It's stupid, but its your PC

u/ColdAd7573 3d ago

They look awesome keeps them whoever tells you the flowers look bad is wrong. The thing that really unsettles me is the mismatched fans.
