I am getting a side window on my pc soon and i would like to have some nice bling. I would like it to be red or RGB. no real price, but the cheaper the better. I will probably get 2 or 4 or more of them.

I'm guessing you want red.

The aliexpress link is exactly the same as the first one I posted, though I've ordered off aliexpress many times before and orders usually take 2 months to get here instead of 3-4 weeks with banggood, on average..

 

I wouldn't get the ones from amazon, the AGPtek one's have terrible reviews.

 

These ones are a meter long and less than 3 bucks

*You can also cut the 5 meter roll of led's to whatever size you want

After you cut the led strip to the size you want, you'll see that there are positive and negative pins, you can use any kind of connecter you like, see the video I linked above.

Then use something like this to power up all the strips http://www.banggood.com/5_5-x-2_1mm-Female-To-Male-Plug-DC-Splitter-Connector-For-LED-Lighting-p-975267.html
