I was never a fan of colors to be honest, specially the rainbow ones. But I guess they could come out with matching colors for the pentium silver and pentium gold.

I feel the fans with matching colors can look good if it matches the colors on the PC case, motherboard, and video card.

Most people can't see their motherboard and video card, so not much reason to match those colors, which are mostly black and green.

I think a lot of PC gamers and richer young PC users have desktop tower cases with a clear plastic window or many large cooling hole vents, so there maybe many millions of people who can see their motherboard and other internal parts.

Some people with computers with overheating problems or a broken CPU fan remove the case doors on a desktop PC and use a large fan to cool their PV so many people with overheating computers do see the CPU cooler, motherboard, and video card when they remove the case door to use a fan to blow air over the cpu.

It seems like once you reach the 1k mark, all the cases become see through with all the colors on it. Nothing like that for the cheaper Pentium units.

There are most likely some custom built Pentium tower computers with more colorful cases, fans with colorful lights and a clear plastic window. You can buy a used or more affordable Gaming PC case for $50 on eBay and Craigslist.

I'm sure as well, but I doubt any money stuck into them wouldn't last long as Pentiums wear out pretty quickly compared to the i series.
