It’s that time of year again. Love is in the air, and power is tucked away in PCs decked out in pinks, purples, and reds. And you know we want to see them – and share the love with a $200 gift card giveaway!

Last week, we saw a ton of stealth builds, coated in black and gray. This week, we want the exact opposite: we want to see builds with color! Did you build in a pink, purple, or red case? Or maybe you just like having your PC RGB light up your room in those lovely colors. Either way, we want to see

How to submit your custom build to the PC Build Showcase

Step 1. Sign in to fill out the build submission form

I've never loved a PC part more than my 4000D! My fans came with two magnetic LED strips and some awesome preset lighting effects - the purple and pink really stand out against a lot of white! I love all of the customizable moods I can set with the remote and iCUE. Plus my Hero VIII's lighting effects! https://www.microcenter.com/buildpost/18458/polar
