    Lights
    Here's a 20-sec 1.5MB video of mine.
    It's a Sunbeam Meteor Light and a NZXT 120mm blue fan basically.
    And it isn't sound reactive... yet. It just kinda looks like it. The video is me manually cycling through settings, there are 8 of them but I use the last one.

    Re: Lights!!!

    do you know if there are any LED or UV reactive CSS grills for a 120mm fan? I've been looking but can't find any good grills for mine.

    Cold Cathode
    You can find a bunch of them at CrazyPC, and they have little features:

    Anyways if you have money ingore this

    I would recommend that if you just want game performance and don't really go to LAN parties like I do, then I would recommend you STOP right now on buying lights. I have done this and spent over 200 dollars in makeing my computer look good without adding any cooling or performance. It was a great mistake on my part and I would just like to warn you. Just on a personal note I would suggest Flat black case with no window and a load of Panflo fans (120mm of course)

    Re: Lights!!!

    I probably spent about 30 dollars trying to make my case look good, which included 2 sets of cold cathode tubes. the first set was red, and the second were UV. I'm back to the red ones because the UV's burned out.

    Re: Lights!!!

    Bah, it's just lights lol!


    The non lighted fan has blue leds...it just can't power on for some reasons. Sometimes it flashes...but it's blank 90% of time.

    ^Maybe you should get a 4-pin molex to 3-pin converter and hook it directly to a cha_fan pin on your mobo.

    Re: Lights!!!

    I have that as a function already. The three fans are modded by the guy and due to that Fan controller frying (The fan was flashing still), I took the rewiring and all three blue led fans are on that same 3-pin connector.

    You bet. The multi color fan and CPU fan are the loudest. The rest are so so.

    For me, i'm planning to use Pentosin anti freeze (pics here: http://petrastechshop.com/peg11coadb4o.html) And some white CCFLs so they dont flush out the color from the anti freeze like colored CCFLs. And this is going all in a black Lian Li V-1000 w/ a side window
    If anybody needs anything from me. PM me.
