Me likey a lot. But you should like put black tape over the LED code and power button (or nail polish on the button) on the motherboard. I did that with my Gigabyte board and it looks better since I have a blue theme as well.

Looks like that is a video cap card that is making the red lights..

Nah, at the top. Next to the RAM. The thing you're talking about is the sound card (Creative Sound Blaster Z).

Ah thank you guys.

 

BUT!

 

Wouldn't a black electric tape be visible also ? and will be more ugly?  :D 

 

And I like the reddish things as it give the case more colors not only 100% blue.

 

trust me when you look at it LIVE its much better than in the picture :)

 

I already taped the Sound Card LED before and I removed it again because I wanted that little red color into my case :D

I edited some code in it to change the colors and to change the name on the top to (Iorveth).

 

These mods are taken from these: (Mark III by Xune531) + (FireTime) + (Eve Online Skin by Thyself) + (Digital Circles) + (Dark Eve) 

 

I searched Google for Rainmeter skins and took what I liked and edited them slightly (Easy to change the color and name).

 

Thanks.
