I'm looking for some led's and haven't been able to find some decent priced ones for my nzxt h440. Yes I know I won't be able to mount it properly I'm planning on just putting it in the basement on the case. Second I wanted to know how long the included led strip is ? And how bright are they ? I don't have led fans and I want this to light up the case in a lIt room

I have it, it is 2m long. But the strip is a flat rubber design so it isn't easy to move around and the tape on it is rubbish.

If u look at my posts you can see how it is at its brightest ( not a good picture TBH).

It will fit underneath no problem.

It goes from fairly dim, to properly bright but not painfully lol.

On the H440 u can not install it on the left (rear) side of the case. The fan blocks the path.

You may also check out the regular NZXT LED, it's not RGB, but it is cheap, long, and much easier to instal.

Ya I was looking at it but I don't know what color I want in my case so I wanted to just get rgb. I have the red and black h440 and I was going to get a red led but I don't know if I want red or white so I just want to go rgb so I can Chanhe it if I want to

And how would the fan block it path ? There's almost an inch of clearance from the side of the fan to the side panel

You don't need it on all four sides anyways they are super bright.

hmm I swore there was a gap between the fan and the side... either way. I have to ghetto mount it anyway so I'll figure something out
