[JFettig]

not quite yet, i got a big whole in the side, with no window,and no cct and im workin on my wattercooling system

and i dont have a camera

[WyrmMaster]

but blue is more expensive so it *MUST* be cooler.:D

I like the idea of red on the keyboard, for one its different, and cheap, and i cant find small blue led's except online. but red ones are like $.15 each at the shack.

[JFettig]

price doesnt make something cooler!!!

and for good red leds its not that cheap!

[Cypher720]

what is a good site for the .15 cent led's?

[eh?]

[JFettig]

have you ever heard of the sweet best performing home made watercooling systems?

[Tbird man]

yeah its called direct die cooling which is quite expensive if you consider manhours put in as well as materals

[KeyboardCowboy]

one of my boxes is done up in blue, so the blue led's look sweet, i have another with yellow led's. that is kinda cool, the other 4 are standard

[Element-Xero]

I AGREE!!

Blue is way overdone and mucho expensivo....

I have reds on every led on my box too (except the monitor), and they were $.15!
:D

[mcrites]

I disagree, I filled 5 5 1/2" bays with 4 rows of blue LEDs, put 100 on my side panel, and I modded my monitor to blue, my pwr, hd, kbd, cable modem, nic, floppy, cdrom, mouse, and I even replaced my eyes with blue leds! MWAHAHAHA! Kidding aside, I like my one power led, but thats the only blue one I have :D

[Captain Slug]

I personally prefer White LEDs... but I'm a freek :D

I get all of my LEDs from .AllElectronics.com (http://www.allelectronics.com) and they get really REALLY cheap if you order them in multiples of 10. They also have Bicolor LEDs and Flasher LEDs. 3mm or 5mm sizes available too.

[GoldenTiger]

Yep, allelectronics is really good.

Hmm.....actually that would look pretty sweet....glowing ultra bright blue eye goodness! haha

I use blue because it goes better w/ my black case. That, and blue and black are my favourite colours.

[Gravity Man]

For my upcoming case mod, I'll be using a menacing black case/red lighting color scheme.

[Oni]

And now I even have a blue Cold Cathode (but it looks more like aqua-marine to me . . .)

thats basicly what im doing!!!
im gonna buy a red cc and replace my power led to red, i already got my keyboard red, and my black mouse that has the red leds(optical)
i would replace my cd burner but it has some wierd one thats like rite against the board....and my dvd is a dual led, im thinkin red and white...

my case is FLAT BLACK!!
its sweet!!!


and im going watercooling when i get my fittings and the pump. i made my waterblock and got a heatercore....
waiting for some more money

[SeigeAkicksass]

back to that keyboard thing- dose anybody know or have a guess at how many leds i could put on (aside fromt he 3for caps lock and stuff?
i have an enhanced keyboared but i dont use it cuz i dont have the softeware or it dostn work (its PS2):D

[JFettig]

this is a couple pix of my system pre-watercooling and pre-soyo dragon
and i need to change my powa led to red, does anyone know the voltage so i dont have to break out the 'ol multimeter?

pretty cool!

[JFettig]

my silva fan spinnin away(pre-watercooled) as you seen above, my waterblock almost finished

[JFettig]

red keyboard leds just caps and num, anyway why do i need to change the scroll lock led? who uses it,

wait i dont know what it does!

my temp-o-mom-o-meeter
with a switch from f-c (notice homemade, mostly)

[Breadfan]

I'd have to just say that blue is my favorite color :)

Don't do it cause its the thing to do, do it cause ya like it.

I've still got the originials on mine, switching has only been a passing thought really...but I suppose on my system if I did I'd go blue...

Ofcourse color scheme has alot to do with it. I've nearly finished my case, its black and sliver in the front (cheated and bought it that way! HA!), with silver painted cd/cdr/floppy, and my own window on the side, plus a blue neon. To me, I'm loving the black/silver/blue thing.

....ofcourse, I screwed my window in rather than using weather strip (figred the shiny silver screws would look cool...they do...) and I managed to crack my plexiglas twice(!) while drilling pilot holes. Its not toooo noticable, but I notice, so I'll probably cut a new plexiglas window...I bought a big sheed for like 7 bucks from home depot, I can probably get about 7 windows outta it!

Ofcourse, I like blue, but I could see black/silver/red just as easy...I hooked my brother up with a red neon tube, and thats probably what we'll do with his case.

[Breadfan]

Awesome! That looks great!

I'll get mine up soon, its not quite finished yet (well I'm never quite "done" with my system anyway, lol), but once its looking good I'll post a pic in the gallery...
