Simple upgrade, looks so much cleaner/better

*Sorry these aren't the best photos, i have a potato camera on this phone as mine broke*

I was getting a bit bored of my build looking dull and dreary on the inside, i had bought some "purple" led strips from ebay(first problem right there) that ended up being more of a luminous pink colour,

Had those in for about 3 weeks in my old case (I think i have a before and after picture of swapping them over, i'll try and find those) but last week i bought my S340 and decided that those led's just look stupid in there now, it needs something to make the inside stand out more.
So in keeping with my white theme, I bought a white pci-e power, 24 pin power, and white led strip from amazon, the result, in my opinion is so much better.

The pictures really don't do it justice, because of this phone having a potato camera.
but I thought i'd still share it anyway just to show how you can make a build look so much cleaner/nicer for not so much money, for the 2 cables and led strips it cost me £19.79, so about 25 dollars, for a huge difference in looks.

And on a side note to this, does anyone know a website that sells cable combs? really want to tidy that 24pin up, probably the pcie too as its not too neat. couldn't find any on amazon.

nice.  i am upgrading my old gaming PC as well and since i pulled all the colored fans out, pretty much all the fans, to keep it quiet i am considering LED strips to liven things up.  you can seach the forums for cable grooming parts.  maybe a company called cablemods has them.
