A FUCKING LIGHT KILLED MY PC

[CrazyWhiteShow]

So I just got a cable mod RGB light strip to put some under glow on my PC, but I couldn't find any instructions not even on the internet so I just kinda took a stab at it and 2h later I can't turn on my pc, even if I plug in every thing like it was before I had the lights. Here is my PC part picker to make specs easy. Also I have windows 10.

What did you change..?

honestly i would just avoid RGB overall, it's just a gimmick

 

EDIT: it also needlessly raises the price of a "budget" pc. you either go full on with RGB, or go budget witohut it

Where did you buy the strip from?

is your RGB wired to be compatible with your header?

Hi @CrazyWhiteShow - What else have you done to the PC? Our LED solutions shouldn't cause your entire PC to stop working, I do apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused though. We can help troubleshoot the issue though and see if we can find the root cause of the issue.
