Agreed with above. Get some 5050 leds and solder on a connector so you can use motherboard pwm. Saves a lot of money compared to buying something like bitfenix Led strips.

For 2M it's best to DIY it for cost and the length but Darkside makes LED's that are controlled via voltage on the fan header but it is limited to 12" unfortunately:

buy led strips and solder them yourself.

Hey i found these 

http://www.icemodz.com/webshop/#!/Single-Color-LED-Strip-choose-size-Color/p/23031229/category=5346676

 

you guys know are they any good? they come in 2M for 20$ extra, and since it is plugged via a fan header that means it is controllable right?

icemodz is good quality.

and yes, they are controllable.

but i'd still solder them myself, you can get 5m for $10.

5050 strip on ebay is a lot cheaper.

Hey!

 

As said above. Buying these re-branded LED-strips is worthless. Get the OEM versions from Ebay where you can configure exact length as you wish. 

The only thing you need is basic soldering skills if you want to make your own molex powered ones. You can even order with a remote so you don't 

have to solder or fiddle with anything, just plug it into the wall.

Good luck,
