White LEDs for PC?

Overkilled

It needs to be like 2m+ I think the colour white I'm looking for is like a cool white or pure white I'm not sure just a similar white to the one on my profile picture and its in the uk

For 2M if you want a continuous strip you would need to get a roll or one from NZXT which use LED Diodes. I would think that LED strip is >4000K color temp if you want that bright white.

 

As for LED strips in general that are available in the UK, Bitfenix is not bad, there are others such as Addon Customs and Modguru which sell LED strips.

bitfenix or darkside LED strips

 

and 2M is way too much

you usually only want one or two 30cm strips or else its too bright

 

Also you dont want to see the LEDs and 2M of strip would be very difficult to hide

ok cool

you could always put a bunch of bitfenix strips together but 2m would be pretty expensive

 

dont buy the cheap NZXT led strips that are a braided cable, those look really bad and are hard to position, you want a flat LED strip

the NZXT hue is RGB and can make white but it will not be pure white like the bitfenix strips

it will probably look similar to what phanteks already has there since its also RGB

 

look around for some cheaper pure white LED strips, from phobya, darkside, or other places that will probably be cheaper than bitfenix

avoid RGB at all costs if you want white

If you are looking for a nice pure white then you do not want to get RGB as they display a dirty looking white.

You can go to auto parts stores or the auto section in wal-mart and get led strips for vehicles cheap. They are easy to wire up to a molex connector and put in your pc.
