Why does most PC hardware look absolutely disgusting and childish?

who cares about technology? saki rukino is shit and you are a faggot

shoko did nothing wrong and is best girl

>>52482771
You should take a look at Fractal Design's cases.

>>52482788
This guy knows the score

god, op you insufferable cunt. you sound like an autist who thinks they are observant and it makes me cringe hard

Because target market for PC is Kids, you fucking retard.

The majority of people that buy PCs nowdays are gaymers. And the majority of gamers are kids. Do the math.

Adults have notebooks.

Because most people aren't autistic and don't care what their hardware looks like desu.

>>52482874
You have no clue what you're talking about

>>52482874
Most gaymers are like 14-30 years old dude

>>52482933
manchildren still count as children

>>52482771
>entirely edgy black or black with red accents

>>52482946
The "Gaming is for children" meme.

You could say 4chan is for children then, seeing as how most people who post on 4chan lie about their age and are mostly 14-30 year olds as well.

>>52482982
Except 4chan isn't specifically aimed at children.

>>52482933
nope

Who cares? The case hides them anyway so just buy one that suits your taste.

Saki deserved better.

Shoko a shit. SHIT.

Most hardware doesn't look disgusting and childish.
The one you're interested in is like that because that's the market you're part of.
If you check out server grade shit, or non gamer products they just look like normal mobos, green sticks of ram, no leds besides on/off and status led, normal black cases with some shit design here and there and that's it.

Fractal Design can't even make a fucking fan controller that doesn't melt itself after switching three times.

>>52483190
It is and you know it.

>>52482771
So what. Most applefags will shitware even if it came only in 1 color:WHITE.
Check your privileges!

>>52482771

because the target market is gaymers, it looks childish because they're selling to children and autistic manchildren

>>52482918
Dat Quality Damn.

>>52484072
Also people who got jerbs amd buy what they want

>>52482771
Why you need your computer hardware to compensate for being a manchild?

>>52482771
Custom PC parts are typically designed to appeal to gamers because your average pleb would rather buy a prebuilt.

>>52482771
I don't know but I wish they made more sleek and clean designs I feel so cringy having a motherboard that says "dragon slayer 9001" or some shit

>>52485228

Same, its a shame that most mobos with the most features have GAMER edition written on it

I personally don't think there's anything "edgy" about all black components

>>52482771
The whitebox market is dominated by gaymers and hipster "minimalists" who think good looks = apple (in a "good" or "bad" context depending on the party involved) and/or form and function are mutually exclusive.

Your only option if you want technology that performs well while actually looking like technology anymore is OEM hardware, really.

>>52482811
>>52483429
Fractal and other fridges are the polar extreme, boring, lifeless, and cheap looking. Especially with that garish brushed aluminum garbage shit, I can't wait for that fad to die.

>>52485202
>implying gamers aren't often plebs as well

>>52482788
Holy fuck this.

>>52485415
>fractals are boring meme
you must be kidding
theyre some of the nicest most stylish and clean looking cases.

>>52482771
black is a good colour. it's not super edgy, as long as there aren't like green highlights. the only thing on my desk that isn't black right now is my microphone, and that's because it would have been like $40 more for blackout. i'm not that rich.

i fucking hate GAYMER peripherals though, like my previous keyboard was backlit because i thought that was cool when i was 14 or whatever. immediately replaced when i got a job,

>>52482771
>black is edgy
What are you, 12? Black is a standard color. What do you want, bright pink?

>>52482771
Sorry everything isn't dull and boring and creatively sterile just the way YOU fucking like it. Go back to the apple store buddy...it all looks the exact same there. Or Facebook... All those white and blue identical profiles, I'm sure it's your thing...

Just curious does that plain sterile stainless steel countertop at the health department do anything for ya?

>>52482771
>>Most motherboards, RAM, and graphics cards are either entirely edgy black or black with red accents.
get a case without a window and you never have to look at them then

>>52485450
>theyre some of the nicest most stylish and clean looking cases.
They're not stylish at all, because they have no style to speak of. They're a featureless box covered in cheap-looking fake brushed metal veneer with a "minimal" design aesthetic that, in the Define series for example, just ends up making them look like a confused subwoofer that wants to be a mini fridge.

Probably the only Fractal product you could make a decent argument for is the Arc series, but like many other cases it's also plagued with the shitty metal and I/O ports that look like a tacked-on afterthought, not to mention the branding.

>>52485606
Why are people not allowed to want something that looks as good as it performs inside and out?

>>52485667
Minimlism is a style, featureless looking cases are objectively superior to shoddy looking, angles everywhere, perforated all over cheap plastic with flashing lights. A shame you cant see that.

>>52485667
isheep and such man...people have been conditioned to think creativity and style are immature and that featureless brushed metal with no detail or individual features are a mark of sofistication.

Sterile products for sterile minds. Gotta blend in with the cool kids and all. Don't want to stand out.

stop buying gaming motherboards and the problem is solved

>>52485789
Here's an example... He even specifically mentions being featureless and bland as a selling point. He can't stand the thought of being unique or interesting. He MUST blend In. With the pack.

Creativity is a plague to him. Individualism is a disease for him. It's must be plain and sterile. HE must be plain and sterile!

>>52483190
But 4chan is aimed at edgy teenagers and manchildren :^)

>>52485844
This. Most of them are overpriced too. 20 Bucks more just for muh k1ll3r gaymen lan

>>52485789
>objectively
No, they really aren't, they're as shitty, cheap and dull as the gaymer shit strawman you're attacking.

And hell, on an "objective" basis, minimalism is an utter cancer in computing (at least for those who use their computer for something more than a glorified internet appliance/gaming console), as it removes useful features, compromises design and expansion capabilities, and hides what features are left behind fragile, annoying doors. Not to mention most attempts are half-assed, ruining the minimal look with shit like fan meshes or mismatched low-quality sheet metal under the cheap plastic shell.

>>52485844
It has a lot going for it, too bad about all those shitty marketing buzzwords near the expansion slots however. Who are they even trying to cater to with that shit? The same people who think gigabit ethernet is an impressive feature in 2000+16?

There's nothing wrong with just plain black motherboards.

>>52485490
>like my previous keyboard was backlit because i thought that was cool when i was 14 or whatever

Yeah, you shouldn't be able to see your keys in the dark, just git gud, everything else is for gaymen children amirite :^)

You might be a closet homo.

>>52486088
Tell that to workstation vendors and their customers ordering 128GB+ configs at the high-end. Most real workstations offer eight or more slots and the single consumer socket alone sends it firmly into the entry-level arena. There's no such thing as "server territory", it's all in what you use it for.

>>52486106
Why did you even bother typing this post if you're not going to offer anything meaningful up for discussion? I thought I already explained that minimalists and their gamer manchildren opposites are both tasteless faggots, as with most things, the best option lies somewhere in the middle. Technology should look like technology.

>>52486171
I'm sorry I can't take retards seriously. There's enough diversity to fit any taste nowadays, you're just looking for reasons to complain. "MUHHH GAMER GEAR, BUT BUT I DON'T LIKE CLASSY STUFF EITHER, I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I WNAT, MOMMMY!!!!"

>>52486171
You're seriously fucking retarded. You just complain about everything.

Yeah, I think I'm done here. Having a piece of shit featureless plastic box on your IKEA desk doesn't make you "classy", it makes you look like a hipster trying to find an easy way to look deep and interesting. Deal with it.

>>52486250
Then why don't you stop complaining about it yourself and bring something useful to the table instead of crying "haha you're CLOSET GAY XXXDDD" like a whining child?

>>52486360
Good, then fuck off you tasteless retard.

>>52486360
That was my first post ITT, but nice try.
Learn to accept that people like things you don't like. If you don't like either of the aforementioned styles, then just get the fuck off of this board, because you're not going to see anything much different.
You fucking autistic complaining retard.

>>52486400
Trying to use my own words against me won't make you look any smarter or your shitty tirade any more valid, friendo.

>>52486402
It's you who seems to have the problem with acceptance, why do I have to like what you and only what you like again? And why did you come into a thread complaining about the current state of whitebox hardware design expecting a bunch of people to stroke your shitty opinion off about how perfect it is?

Accepting something does not mean you agree with it.
Also, calling people whining children after complaining about someone liking something you don't like means you are a hypocritical idiot.

I don't really think there is anything wrong with liking it actually, I think there's something wrong with people who like it lording it over as some end-all-be-all objectively superior alternative that makes them an absolute patrician when in reality the aesthetic has many shortcomings of its own and isn't particularly "classy" or good looking in itself.
