If you want LED strips Cable Mod makes some nice kits, some other options with similar products are Addon Customs and Modguru.

All our LED strips and cables are wired and sleeved by hand, and the only thing you need to do is plug them into your PSU.

 

You can see what we offer here - https://addoncustoms.com/ - Unfortunetly our workshop is closed until the 28th September as I am away on holiday.

Those would be plug and go solutions the ones on Amazon will require a little handy work to get things going, ones like theses are good.

Yes those are good if you want to be able to change to different colors and lighting modes since they are RGB based, using the remote control system. 

If i wanna order this right now https://addoncustoms.com/store/product/57-rgb-kit-2x-30cm-led-strips/ do you think are they bright enough to light my case?

You get 2x RGB LED strips, (18LEDs on each), 2x 30cm extension cables, controller and power cable, you also get a 4 way splitter (i know the description says 2, but that is wrong it is a 4 way) so you can buy more led strips and add them on (also on our store at a low price).

For kits around the same price you only get 1x LED strip with 15 LEDs on it.

depending on how well you can hide the cables you could try a cheap usb strip from amazon and internal usb adapter.

Most leds, especially RGB are 12v while USB provide 5v.   Great idea, but won't work in for this.

With two strips for sure they use SMD5050 LED's which are very bright for their size. Just to give you an idea I have two white LED's of that style in my case and it lights things up very easily.

might of been an idea to check the link ;) they are 5v strips, so theyd work, as I said though better of with magnetic,sleeved molex stuff.

17 pounds for 2 of those rgb strips seem a bit expensive if you do it yourself some soldering and heatshrink yourself you can probably get that for 5 pounds at a chinese webshop including molex cable, ac plug, led strip and the received with remote at one of those chinese webshops

 

this is of course the cheap rgb solution (controlled through remote, not through software)

 

If you want the real deal you should get cablemod or nzxt hue+
