So im not sure if this is the correct topic section but it seemed to be the best fit. The build I am thinking about doing is below and what I am looking for is internal case lighting. Im not a fan of the straight tube lights I much prefer the flexible LED lights but I can't seem to find any that are multi color. So that it will go along with the Razer Chroma products.

 

I have not built it yet but this is probably what I am going to put together.

As said, go for the NZXT hue system, and I believe phobya also do RGB LED strips as well, if you want to look at theirs as well.

If you got the Phanteks Enthoo luxe case you can combine it with Phanteks LED strips which looks amazing.

Just throwing it out there as an option

Thanks for the suggestion, looks great and will fit perfectly. Only draw back to it I would say is the sticky portion of it.
