Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I think this is the best fit.

 

I have a Define R5 and I'm wanting to get some case lighting. what are the best white LED strips that could stick to the side of the window? I would prefer some smooth lighting, not just a bunch of visible dots, you know? any suggestions? :D

To prevent the reflections or bright spots it's best to place LED lights where it never makes direct line of sight to your eyes and away from nearby surfaces so it doesn't reflect the light directly back. 

 

Some good LED strips are the Bitfenix Alchemy be a bit expensive, or Darkside LED's. There are also a bunch of modding stores like Addon Customs or Modguru that also do custom LED lighting.

Thanks for the mention.

You can see our LEDs on our store, AddonCustoms.com We ship worldwide. 

Our LEDs are simple, you pick what you want. I will then make it, and send it right to your door. All you do is open package, peel off the sticky back, stick you where you want them, plug in the strip and turn on your computer.

 

 You can pick the power cable length (10cm to 2 meters) Sleeving Colour (Black or Red) and choose either a 3pin fan connector or 4pin molex.

 

 

Our prices start from around $12 (Shipping to the USA is $7), ordering 2 strips + shipping would be from $31, cheaper than competitors such as silverstone, bitfenix, NZXT and our products are not factory made, our LED products are all wired and sleeved by hand in high quality paracord in our workshop to ensure the highest quality, and tested before being shipped. Our LEDs strips contain 15 LED housing which contain 3 diodes each, bringing the total of LED diodes to 45.
