LED Accent Lights

[Cheese4395]

Hi guys,

 

So this is my first post on here, I literally made the account minutes before this, but I've been watching Linus for a while now. Anyways as you may or may not be able to tell, I'm looking to buy some LED strips, not CCL, but LED.

I'm looking for some blue or UV blue ones. I want them to really be blue not purple or anything else. I would like a blue shine to go with my build. If it was something really easy for me to just strap down or tape and pull and play I would appreciate it, if it takes some wire working to make it work then I don't mind but if it is intensive I would prefer it not be suggested.

 

If anyone could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.

 

Also, if anyone could tell me how to setup the LED's that they suggest I would appreciate that too.

 

Thanks guys,

Where's that Google part of my signature?

Go on Newegg and type "led"

The only brand off the top of my head is NZXT, but there's a few good ones out there.

The big two people usually I see go for are the NZXT Hue and bitfenix alchelmy strips, note the NZXT Hue needs a 5.25" drive bay. 

 

For LED strips the most important thing for mounting is just letting the glow be seen and none of the actual LED's since the light from them is pretty harsh, you could also add a light diffuser strip or cover over the LED strip to prevent reflections in the case especially if you have a gloss white finish on the inside.

Five meter roll off eBay for $10, wire 'em up yourself.

I use BitFenix Alchemy LED strips and they're awesome.
