Expanding Feature Request List **Add yours here if you like!**

[Jacknm2]

Hello!

PLEASE NOTE, I AM NO LONGER KEEPING THIS LIST ACTIVE, PLEASE USE THE GAME DISCORD / OFFICIAL ROADMAP OR START YOUR OWN THREAD IF YOU WISH TO MAKE A SUGGESTION / REQUEST

To start, I'd like to let you know that I'm NOT a developer. I'm just like you guys: A fan with lots of ideas and suggestions! :) I managed to compile enough of them that the devs pinned this for everyone to see and as a go to point for the most requested ideas. I've left off obvious branding and branded parts as those will come with time, this is more of a feature request list than a parts request list (for part requests, go here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/621060/discussions/0/1471966894865766167/).

I've also left out VR because the devs have stated a few times, including recently, that they wish to explore VR after v1.0 drops.

This list is compiled by myself, Turbo who is helping me with additions, changes and formatting and You Guys! who would like to see similar features. Myself and Turbo shall keep compiling and inserting others' ideas with credit to summarize them all in one spot. I'm sorry if you do not get credit or your idea placed on the list as it may be a duplicate or left out for another reason which I will probably explain in a comment. :)

!!!DISCLAIMER!!!: Obviously not all of this is going to make it into the game. This is just a compiled list of some features and items people would love to see in the game, but most of us are realists, lol.

The game thus far is fantastic; really satisfying my upgrade itch, lol. Wish I'd found this sooner to better support it!

Career Features

• Name your company and/or yourself/character etc...
  - Credit to Graham.
  https://steamcommunity.com/app/621060/discussions/2/3211505894108676342/
  
  
• More levels/progession.
  - Credit to EthanLikesToDie.
  This has been implemented once already for the level cap increase from level 20 to level 25, but I will leave it here for more levels.
  
  
• Perks awarded with progression by working with certain other systems such as full workstations, NAS servers, and full servers. Also, using any item, be it a case, HDD/SSD, CPU, GPU, etc. will gain you an "Expert" Badge/Perk/Award allowing for faster work with these components. This applies to certain workable components, mainly branded ones, giving players an incentive to work with more than the cheapest components possible.
  - Credit to Skyblue; see comments #84, #85, and #107.
  
  
• Revamp the career payment methods to make a fair system, such as calculating the cost of a job after its been completed rather than before hand.
  - Credit to RAMChYLD; see post #167 in the comments below.
  
  • To further expand on this myself, level progression could inscrease the base "hourly pay" or pay per job, starting off low and increasing linearly. Reputation can also play a factor with this. There can always be jobs included which will not pay enough to support the cost, e.g. customer will not pay more than $100 on initial email or there could be jobs that will give significant reputation and XP rewards but not pay enough making the player choose.
  
  
• 'Hardcore Mode' could be introduced for those who have more experience and do not want to be shepherded through the career mode with info on the screen telling them which items need replacing, for example the player must find and replace/fix without help:
  
  • Fans not rotating or missing (CPU, GPU, Case).
    
  • Maybe some visible burn marks, scratches, water damage, or melted plastic.
    
  • Misconfigurations in the BIOS.
    
  • Errors only become apparent if I run some sort of stress test.
    
  • Broken/bad sectors on hard drives.
    
  • More complex viruses that need require greater effort/more skill to remove.
    
  • Unpartitioned/repartition disk space.
    
  • Simple things, such as cables that are just not connected.
    
  • Broken USB ports or other connectors.
    
  • and more...
  - Credit to Lyseria; see comment #239.
  
  
• Realistic prices when selling some components via PC Bay.
  
  • Should be balanced, as well as possibly have used parts suffer from depreciation after being purchased/left over.
  - Credit to PyBrick.
  
  
• Possibility of selling complete custom made PCs via PCBay or some other medium, such as a store front for end-game players/top level. I don't know why I didn't add this sooner; it's been on my to do list! However, I'll credit the person that most recently suggested it.
  - credit to Osnium.
  https://steamcommunity.com/app/621060/discussions/2/1733213724903614077/
  
  • Change new part value to apply at, or near, it's full value (instead of used value) on complete builds posted on PCBay.
    - Credit to BonPadre and many, many others.
  
  
• Possibly expanding to larger premises in the future and hiring testing staff?
  
  • First level office has maximum of three workstations and three tasks at a time. Costs 500$ per month.
    
  • Second level office has maximum of four workstations and four tasks at a time. Costs 750$ per month and allows for more complicated/higher end builds.
    
  • Third level office has maximum of six workstations and six tasks at a time. Costs 1250$ per month and allows for even more complicated builds such as servers, workstations, and ultra high end overkill builds.
    
  • Each "upgrade" to the office could cost:
    
    1. Free (the office you start with)
       
    2. $5000
       
    3. $10000
    - This is TheRareGamers idea of making the game a bit more fun... All credit to him for expanding on this idea! I love it!
    
  • After reaching max level and upgrading to the largest office you could make your own brand of computers/hardware to sell to customers, choosing the name/style/logo/colours/etc... and of course different tier computers and hardware. Perhaps having pre-made designs to choose from that you can alter the colour of and having the ability to apply this to cases and GPU/PSU shrouds, etc...

  • Expand shop to include an internet cafe storefront.
    - Credit to VaginDesolator.
  https://steamcommunity.com/app/621060/discussions/2/1693795812314311315/
  
  
• Resource/time management tools as you expand your company, possibly with a back log of work. Also, having a real time-limited, but scaled, day, e.g. every five seconds of real time is equivalent to an in-game minute. Via this method a 12 hour work day in game would take one hour in real time.
  - Credit to Mr. Night.
  - see comments; expanded on by myself.
  
  
• Test bench(s) for the shop, allowing you to test components.
  
  • An RNG component could be added during the purchase process that will result in parts occasionally being 'dead on arrival' just like real life (say, one in every 100 - 250 parts purchased). This would then require you to test all components on a test bench to verify that the parts are functional, just like you would in real life.
    
    • This would of course require an 'exchange' to replace the broken part, perhaps with discounted shipping to make up for the inconvenience (such as free one day shipping and/or $20 same day shipping.
    - Credit to Turbo.
  
  
• Greater variety of jobs.
  
  • Add other IT support features such as troubleshooting client servers.
    - Credit to davies_family4!.
    
  • Laptop and tablet repair/refurbishing.
    - Credit to davies_family4!.
    
  • Remove most or some of the same day repair jobs and provide repair jobs that allocate time for diagnosis of fault - possibly increase difficulty by providing less information - can be scaled with player level. To add to this, perhaps we can either allocate the time ourselves in a response email with job pay lowering the longer it takes or 'X' Cash$ per day is taken off the final payment until the job is complete with a cut off date determined by the difficulty of the work with a minimum of 2 days after accepting the job. - Jacknm2

  • More virus jobs.
    
  • Ransomware removal.
    
  • Data transfer.
    
  • Software/OS repair and updates for the non tech savy etc...
  
  
• Bulk buy discounts from part suppliers/shop.
  - Credit to Gunslinger.
  
  
• Random issues with shop-owned/personal hardware over time. Would require having stock or some sort of backup device with which to order replacement parts.
  - Credit to Another Kind of Monster.
  
  
• When swapping out HDDs/SSDs, you have to reinstall OS or attempt to clone the previous drive to the new drive. Could be a more simplified process but will add more realism to the sim!
  - Credit to windowsioroblox!.
  
  • Data recovery from damaged HDDs/SSDs. This could be a minigame?
    - Credit to Mr. Night.
  
  
• Additional operating systems for more expansion on the career and between customers to add to the difficulty and/or realism? Could be something as simple as a different loading/install screen logo and desktop logo, possibly requiring a different USB flash drive.
  - Credit to windowsioroblox! and romain51.
  
  
• Be capable of handling more than three tasks/jobs at a given time.
  - Credit to EthanLikesToDie.
  https://steamcommunity.com/app/621060/discussions/0/1698294337792324265/
  
  
• Sponsorship from brands such as EVGA, ASUS, etc. that would give discounts and/or increase shop reputation due to work with said manufacturers' parts through competitions and/or career milestones.
  
  • Expanding on this: could have the posters in the shop change depending on which brands you are sponsered by.
  
  
• Advertising campaign for the shop which could increase the number/quality of customers, or both! Could also have negative side effects as well? This could possibly include a reputation rating for your shop, such as an online review based on a few factors such as: job turn around time (speed), quality of parts (a reason to use flashy parts rather than budget stuff), price of parts (maybe you'd have to negotiate price before hand) and a random factor to account for customers' mood/attitude. The advertising would be able to provide a temporary boost on the back side of the game to give higher quality/more jobs as if you have a better rating.
  - Credit to Mr.Night.
  
  
• An end game goal of having a store/warehouse and building or maintaining a big super computer designed for AI learning or scientific reasons.
  - Credit to Elijah1.
  
  
• Have older equipment available for older computer repair, such as DDR3 RAM (and maybe even DDR2), IDE drives, floppy disk drives, and older GPUs.
  - Credit to Munross88 and romain51.
  
  
• Randomize repair jobs so that defective components are randomized when the PC arrives and not predetermined to prevent player abuse of the save system (such as save scumming in order to one-day-ship parts that are required before the PC ever arrives). This is not essential but would actually be more inline with the simulator feel of the game.
  - Credit to Skyblue.
  
  
• Benchmarking competitions with set parameters and prizes.
  - Credit to - Ulrich_S -.
  https://steamcommunity.com/app/621060/discussions/2/3211505894108682913/
  
  • Implement a verification system to detect the use of mods and/or changes made to the stock asset values.
    - Credit to Turbo.
    
  • Liquid nitrogen CPU and GPU cooling for overclocking/benchmark competitions.
  
  
• House call jobs for big computers or racks that cannot be transported to you.
  - Credit to Wetzer.
  
  
• Require purchase of new thermal paste and compressed air over time to simulate use of supply.
  - Credit to Brandon0McGowan.
  
  
• Create jobs that have customers request specific part brand(s), case form factor, color preference, etc.
  - Credit to 17WARD.
  
  
• Real world freeware software should also be free in game, e.g. GPU Tuner, SysInfo.
  - Credit to 17WARD.
  
  
• 3DMark should be sold in the shop instead of immediately available.
  - Credit to 17WARD.
  
  
• Create multiple career modes based on decade (e.g. start in 80s, 90s, early 2000s).
  - Credit to morbidmorgis.
  
  
• Add jobs which contract you to eSports teams to build all of their PCs. Could possibly have the contract pay out monthly instead of a job by job basis.
  - Credit to Noimack.
  
  • Expanding on this: tie this into the rating system to further boost reputation and increase high end job frequency.
  
  
• Add laptop repair jobs (Editor Note: would require the creation of a ton of proprietary parts that are unique to each different laptop, so I'm not entirely sure this would be feasible at this point; could possilby make this a DLC after full release?).
  - Credit to breNdzz.
  
  
• Add clarification on overclock requests for GPUs to specify between core and memory clock.
  - Credit to BonPadre.
  https://steamcommunity.com/app/621060/discussions/0/1743353798879267857/?tscn=1544032587
  
  
• Randomize the budget for repairs to slightly higher than necessary so it is not so easy to guess which part(s) are broken.
  - Credit to lekto
  
  
• Show hidden objectives as completed on the objectives tab after you've completed them.
  - Credit to lekto
  
  
• Allow custom cable requests to be completed even if a customer has a non-/semi-modular PSU. There may only be a fan or SATA data cable that color, but it is there.
  - Credit to many.
  
  
• Allow the ability to "gift" parts to customers to avoid going over budget (Editor Note: this is extremly unrealistic, but seems to be a pretty popular request).
  - Credit to many.
  
  
• Add the possibility that the customer incorrectly diagnoses a broken part on repair jobs. (e.g. customer thinks their CPU is broken, but it's actually RAM; Editor Note: I LOVE this idea).
  - Credit to Kebab Remover.
  
  
• Add a co-op career mode (Editor Note: I'm not entirely sure this is feasible, but it's an extremely popular request so I'm adding it to the list for posterity's sake).
  - Credit to many.
  
  
• Add a sound level component to build requests (e.g. request full water cooling to reduce noise level from fans; Editor Note: would require a decibel measuring component to be added and possibly require the addition of custom fan curves, as requested below).
  - Credit to Satrapi.

General Gameplay Improvements or Quality of Life

• Alter how ram works in the game to reflect its operation in real life I.e. difference between single channel and dual channel / using correct DIMM slots - This would benefit new players/builders and teach them correct building etiquette and why it matters, the tutorial could reflect this but would require alteration to most job pricing requirements or an alteration on the ram prices them selves.
  
  
• Add a personal inventory in Free Build.
  - Credit to BroniFriendz.
  
  
• Add the functionality to add our own notes to individual parts.
  
  • I'm not sure how you could do it, but it would be nice to also have this in Free Build. Perhaps a prompt of "would you like to add a note" when removing a component? Then, any parts with notes on them are kept in a separate inventory to be used again later.
  - Credit to Turbo.
  
  
• Operating system is applied to, and moves with, SSD/HDD instead of with the case of that particular job.
  
  • This could require drives to be cloned or data recovered depending on the job, e.g. upgrade HDD, Diagnose and Fix, etc., and assuming the customer would like to keep their old "files."
  - Credit to PyBrick & roman51 as well as numerous other users, including myself.
  
  
• Add your own music to the in game player.
  - Credit to Kamdar Wolf.
  https://steamcommunity.com/app/621060/discussions/0/1698294337789534943/?ctp=5
  - This is already likely in the works, I'm just adding it to be thorough!
  
  
• Parts purchased off PCBay may be modified? Could also add a subscription service for PCBay that would give a small discount on parts.
  - Credit to Mr. Night.
  
  
• Unlimited storage in cabinet on freebuild mode in order to build multiple systems in the same case.
  - Credit to Validation; see comment #235.
  
  
• Change in the description sheet on the left in game to show (if applicable) the job price limit and the cost of the current parts for the PC you're currently working on. For example, https://i.imgur.com/qyneCS4.jpg
  - Credit to Hankey Camping.
  https://steamcommunity.com/app/621060/discussions/2/3211505894130906713/
  
  
• Move the light switch to a more convienent place (such as next to the door in the hallway) so your not walking around in the dark. Could possibly even add a second switch in the hallway that is just for hallway lights.
  
  
• Ability to save "Wish Lists" in the shop and one click add to basket/order due to repeating jobs of similar specs.
  - Credit to Hankey Camping.
  https://steamcommunity.com/app/621060/discussions/2/3211505894130891853/
  
  
• Virtual economy: take advantage of low price point periods and peak selling periods due to high demand/low supply in "special events." Standard economy would show the shop having sales on items or even have competing shops.
  
  • Mimick real life sale dates (e.g. Black Friday, Click Frenzy, Cyber Monday, etc.) that give discounts on parts during those in-game days.
    - Credit to breNdzz.
  
  
• Viewable storage/inventory for existing parts so you can check stock before building new PCs.
  
  • Able to view and track your online orders in a much more transparent way than the current door/calender system to see what you've ordered and when its arriving.
    - Credit toMaltebyte.
    https://steamcommunity.com/app/621060/discussions/0/3211505894112205414/
    
  • Visual representation of inventory, such as a display shelf or shelf rack for motheroboards, GPUs, and CPUs (via their boxes).
    - Credit to Mr. Mechanic as well for this one!
    https://steamcommunity.com/app/621060/discussions/2/3211505894113160772/
    
  • Inventory item stacking!! Have multiple items of the same type? Stack them to save space on the inventory and endless scrolling! Split items up by new & used as well as its indiviual description.
    - Credit to Kaiviel!.
    https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1362889166
    
    • Expaning on this: considering that each part has randomized asset values to imitate the dreaded Silicon Lottery, this could be implemented as an expandable stack. In other words, don't actually stack the items, just put all the items of the same name into a "folder" of sorts that can then be expanded in the invintory window.
  • Clearly view items taken out of a particular PC. In other words, something better than the current sticky-note system.
    - Credit to Gunslinger.
  
  
• Make the calendar more user friendly and show full item lists on expected delivery date. This could be done by expanding a window when mousing over the date in question.

• Customizable wallpapers on PCs.
  - Credit to Skylord; see comment #232.
  
  • Ability to change our workstation desktop wallpaper/background (preferably to something from our actual computer).
    - Credit to Dero; see comment #226.
  
  
• Professional/more robust photo mode such as the one for Eurotruck Simulator II, e.g. for epic screenshots of builds, especially with more case modding features implimented down the line.
  - Credit to Munross88!.
  
  
• More professional computers for later game equipment, such as workstation or server grade equipment.
  
  
• Display RAM frequency when hovering over it in build mode to better identify them due to similar designs making it hard to do so.
  - Credit to RAMChYLD.
  
  
• Ability to track benchmark results, e.g. automatically logging in and updating results to a "Shop Network" (possibly via new Office software mentioned below).
  - Credit to Einharjar!.
  
  
• Functioning sleep mode for saving electricity and super quick access to the shop PC instead of switching it on and off each day? Would not save as much power as actually turning off the PC. Possible functioning restart button?
  - Credit to Kaiviel!.
  
  
• Ability to change brightness settings in game and add colorblind options.
  - Credit to jztemple; see comment #220.
  
  
• Ability to adjust UI size/scale or colours via options.
  - Credit to Scorpionius.
  
  
• Overclocking Improvements
  
  • Overclocking in general needs more refining, such as voltage changing temperature instead of clock speed. As of right now, it makes no sense not to max voltage, as it makes no difference in heat generated. The same could also be applied to GPUs, allowing the max voltage to be unlocked through the use of a custom BIOS flash. This particular feature for GPUs could be limited to a "hardcore mode" if one were to be made.
    - Mentioned many times on discord but I will credit Rindoresu & others for this mention.
    
  • Add the functionality to manually type in values for CPU bus, CPU multiplier, CPU voltage, RAM voltage, GPU core clock overclock, and GPU memory clock overclock.
    - Credit to Turbo.
    
  • More overclocking freedom, e.g. RAM timing, finer voltage adjustments.
    - Credit to BroniFriendz.
  
  
• Please modify the MP3 player so that it can play MP3s in a descent directory structure.
  - Credit to Wetzer.
  
  
• Please add a feature to Free Build that gives you the total real world cost for all parts. This would be very useful for planning a new PC build in real life.
  -Credit to Aim Like Ray Charles.
  
  • Expanding on this: would require internet access and some form of access/partnership with an entity such as PC Part Picker, or for the game devs to set up their own form of part cost tracking service.
  
  
• Add the ability to cycle through more than one color with the RGB breathing effect.
  - Credit to CanehdianSteve.
  
  
• Add the ability to move the shop PC onto the desk instead of keeping it ON THE DUSTY FLOOR!
  - Credit to CanehdianSteve.
  
  
• Add the functionality to reorganize the shop.
  - Credit to IRON PHOENIX.
  
  • Expanding on this: could create multiple static options for how the room could be organized for the player to choose from.
    
  • Allow customization of flooring (e.g. carpet, tile, etc.) and wall color.
    - Credit to gta_fan.
  
  
• Require the use of the scroll wheel to remove and install screws instead of just holding the mouse button.
  - Credit to Brandon0McGowan.
  
  
• Add the capability to make your own server room.
  - Credit to IRON PHOENIX.
  
  
• Add "Are you Sure you want to Exit?" or "Save before exiting?" prompts to ensure people do not accidentally loose data.
  - Credit to Major König.
  
  
• Ability to set customised Cable colour as default for every system once purchased.
  - Credit to Major König.
  
  
• Add an RGB lighting setting to change color based off temperature of a set component (e.g. green = cool, yellow = warming up, red = critical; allow to be set to either CPU or GPU temp).
  - Credit to morbidmorgis.
  
  
• Add a warning when ending the day if there are currently unordered parts in the shop cart.

Items - CPUs and Motherboards

• Further expansion on processors, e.g. Intel's i9s and AMD's new Ryzen 2XXX CPU and APUs!
  - Credit to xosweeting38ox.
  https://steamcommunity.com/app/621060/discussions/2/3211505894110078866/
  
  
• Add support for E-ATX, mATX, and mITX motherboards, as well as multi-socket workstation boards. Don't know why I didn't have this in there!

  - Credit to RAMChYLD.
  
  
• Intergrated graphics via Intel HD or AMD's APUs. Why didn't I think of this!
  - Credit to TheRareGamer.
  
  
• Z170 boards need board partners to allow for overclocking as the current cheap-o Mortoni brand does not. These boards could be relabeled H170 and branded boards could come in as Z170s.
  - Credit to Rindoresu.
  
  
• Add delidding capabilites that functionally improves CPU cooling characteristics.
  
  • Add liquid metal thermal interface material to take full advantage of delidding.
  - Credit to Turbo.

Items - GPU & GPU Features

• More previous generation GPUs available in older machines.
  
  
• Quadro and Titan cards for workstations and enthusiasts.
  - Credit to Virus4K™.
  
  
• Ability to add more than two GPUs into a single system to enable three and four way SLI/Crossfire, unlock the secondary slot to support Crossfire for chipsets in the same family, and enabling PhysX cards (e.g. GTX 1080 Ti x2 in SLI along with a single GTX 980 as a PhysX card) and having 3DMark reflect this.
  - Credit to RAMChYLD.
  
  
• Add functionality to make the stock GPU cooler a removable part to allow installation of aftermarket GPU cooling solutions to any card.
  
  • Add aftermarket thermal pads and liquid metal thermal interface material that can be used to further improve cooling performance.
    
    • Allow aftermarket thermal pads and liquid metal TIM to be used even when reinstalling the stock air cooler.
  - Credit to Turbo.

Items - SSD/HDD Additions/Features

Items - Cases, Case Modding, and Wiring

• Add more low budget cases without windows for those true low end computers.

• Add desk cases and wall mounts, e.g. Desk Build Example[goo.gl], Wall Mount Build Example[goo.gl].
  - Credit to Turbo.
  
  
• Case modding! I believe this is already considered. Just in case though! :P
  
  • Allows users to create unique custom cases and coolers, and "3D-Printed" decorations for supported mobos, and share them over the Workshop. We should keep it to custom cases, coolers, and decorations for practical purposes.

    - Credit to Turbo.

Items - Cooling

• Water cooling, both AIO and custom (I suppose this is already in the works; I just thought I'd put it in).
  
  
• Separate fans from radiators (both AIO and standalone) and heatsinks (even if it requires a special fake brand radiator/AIO/heatsink in order to do it; this would most likely be the case due to license agreements with partnered brands).
  - Credit to Dysthymaeon; see comment #236.
  
  • Ability to change the orientation of case and radiator fans in order to create push, pull, and push/pull systems as well as positive or negative air flow systems.
    - Credit to {ATF} Deadslim77 (666); see comment #257.
    - Credit also to ✯︎☣︎kryptonitekush0420☣✯.
    
  • Add functionality for static pressure on fans for radiators instead of basing radiator cooling off CFM.
    - Credit to Turbo.
    
  • Another possibility to avoid licensing issues with separating fans from rads would be to create a chain install system for radiators, much like how motherboards currently install when using the Auto-Standoff and Auto-Screw tools. In other words, installing the radiator doesn't install just one component, it first installs the rad, then each OE fan. Once that is done, you could set it up to bring up an options menu similar to the tube bending UI. The options here would let you choose the fans you want to use and what orientation you'd like to install them in.
  
  
• Add Water cooling for Ram modules - Credit to IcecoldNZ and others!
  
  
• Add high grade thermal paste for use between CPU and cooling solution for slightly better cooling.

  - Credit to Turbo.

Items - Software

• Add an office software bundle that functions like MS Office 365 and has multiple programs for players to use which help run the busniess more smoothly and could even include the email app and an inventory tracker!

• 3DMark upgrade to include GUI like graphics similar to RTSS software bundled with MSI Afterburner. Either by approved use of MSI AB includied in the game or 3DMark upgrade available at X level to purchase in the tools section so we can monitor hardware usage and temps in retail to help with indentifying problems.

  - Credit to Turbo.
  
  
• Ability to set custom GPU fan curves in GPU tuner.
  - Credit to Turbo.
  
  
• Add more games to the 'Will It Run' app (Editor Note: this has been done previously, but can always be improved upon).
  - Credit to many.

I like the server grade equipment idea!

[Jacknm2]

I'd Also Like to add:

• Wider variety in cases in addition to the older style ones
  
  
• More options in cables and cable management
  
  
• Wider Variety in jobs

[Elijah1]

Heres someing i want added:

Super Towers as in the PC towers that are the size of minifridges

And a warehouse you can rent for a storymode that has some kind of end game goal of building a big huge Super computer of some kind or someing and all the fixing computers
was only to make the money to build the Super computer.

also more options in cables and cable magagement is allready in the works look at the roadmap

Can we have some more variants on the game default SSD's?

• up to 1TB SSD's
  
• Different colour variants on Shean SSD's, Black / Red etc... to match Case colours / Themes
  
• More Corsair RGB Case fans or Generic RGB Case fans if possible
  
• Along the lines of Corsair Air/LL/ML Series in 120mm & 140mm
  
• Some high efficiency case fans in pure black or white would not go a miss either if possible.

I'd settle for the SSD colours if nothing else lol

[Jacknm2]
