Hey mate, nice build there! How did you find the NZXT LED's? Was it the braided cable kit?

Thank you all! :)

I am already itching to build another one with a bitfenix prodigy, those cases just but a smile on my face when i see them.

 

WINTERSTOCK yes it is the braided cable 1m led kit. I found it at newegg for $12 i think I will post a link if needed.

These LED's set the perfect environment in the case. as I do not want it to look like a rave in there, but one side of my case is clearly brighter than the other from the slack of length i had to work with, so im looking for other solutions :lol:
