LED lights for h440?

Snake21

been looking for a led light or rgb led light for my h440 case, which would be a better choice get a nzxt sleeve kit (single color only), deepcool RGB led strip with remote control for RGB settings ( still dont know if one pack would be enough), or just go on a store that sell RGB led strips and mod  (dont know how much will it cost me and how good it will be).

Just buy some RGB LED Strips that use USB and write yourself a little software that allows you to input intervals of red, green, and blue to create whatever color you like, then route it through the USB connection, through an Arduino or similar micro-controller, and into the LEDs.

 

edit: This is advanced, but you will most likely get better colors, and you could adjust the saturation, brightness, latency (so like will the LED's act like a monitor and refresh at something like 60Hz) and maybe the voltages in the LEDs

the adhesive are easy to fix, what i want to know is it better to get a non branded LED strip and match it with a controller, and how to connect it on my existing PSU

There is absolutely no reason to get a "non-branded", they are not better. They will 95% of the time use the same LEDs, for example if you're looking for an RGB strip, the LEDs you want (best/brightest) are SMD5050. Any strip that has those is fine. Just buy one made for PCs, with already-installed connections.

 

It might cost slightly more, but it'll work better and much better for cable management, ease of use, and setup.

The NZXT strip comes on a PCI bracket, and is powered by molex. @MrYuriy is also correct, however.

Each LED strip is handmade by me, you pick the power cable length  (from 10cm to 2 meters) and connector (3pin fan or 4pin molex), the power cable also gets sleeve in HD (High Density) black paracord. (all LEDs are tested before being sent)
