RGB Lighting

ZeusXI · April 14, 2016

I was wonder if there are any RGB lighting strips I can add into my computer. I wouldnt mind manual control, but preferred software control if there is an option like that. Here is the inside of my case at the most current update. I wouldnt mind white lights, or even blue. The name is Arctic Core, so if you think of any other colors that go with the name/build theme, all suggestions would be appreciated. I wouldnt mind putting the lights on the bottom, top, or front side.

Also, forgot the mention. Limit is 25$ USD with S+H

Link above is to a rgb light strip. 32 ft is definitely more than what you need but I guess you could save that for future rgb projects?

EDIT: THIS one give off a better white colored light though.

Can you cut the cable to length? or is it 32 feet straight up?

A lot of the LED strips that you find online are able to be cut. The one that I linked you specifically is able to be cut every 3 LEDs

Alright. So the LED are powered by the strip? or right to the motherboard? Cause I dont see it connecting through a PCI slot in the back, and i dont have any liquid cooling grommets in the back of my case to pull the power if thats how it works.

Most of the ones out there and the DIY ones will be hardware controlled with a remote, if you want full software based systems you are going to want to look into the NZXT Hue+.
