Blue would look pretty good on that. I have a black Super Talent case w/ window and I have 4 blue LED fans, and it looks pretty nice at night. 2 blue cold cathodes would look nice on yours.

you wouldnt happen to have pics would you?
 
Case gallery..."Black on Blue"...not quite done with it yet though...
 
wow the blue realy comes out , i was thinking of spraypainting the inside of the case UV Blue or Purple
 
Its pretty easy, the secret is to paint it flat white first, than after it dries paint it with the Flourescent paint. It was really cheap and looks nice.
I spend most of my time on this forum as there are more cool peops to ask stuff to. I like Pitstop but hard to get answers to stuff.

Wait till you see whats new, this is so cool, I just got them today and they work so nice,

they are real tiny and light up the whole case..
 
i have everything picked out for this UV mod but now wife is changing her mind :banghead:

wife CPU is a 64bit 3400+
 
Thats what girls are for, to enable us guys to buy stuff...lol

Check this out, it would look real nice in your case and its cheap too...

Now if you OC than you need a better one but if its the wifes comp this cooler is really sweet (urs is a little sucky) and the Fan Glows with the UV lights.
 
What's better, laser lights/LED lights or cold cathodes?
 
honestly the 5 light leds. I just got them today (in diff colors) and they are really tiny, they take practically no power and they are 10 times brighter than the tubes.

So you saying to get those since there brighter?
 
way better and way smaller. If you want you can sell me the tubes if you dont use them.
 
how many should i get for this tower ?
 
ONE, they are really bright and they have 5 leds on one block. I got Red, blue and red,blue ,green together.
They work really well and dont have the extra power inverter and fit in a small space.
Did you see the CPU cooler?
 
do you realize her tower is 19x8x20H
 
They are 10 times brighter than the tubes, there is 5 LEDs in the block and they are at angles so the light is spread out. My case is bigger and they lit up my whole DFI mobo (the tubes dont do that)

If ur not sure get 2 one for the top and one for the bottom, I tried to take a pict but my camera sucks.

I reckon blue merging with green to red would look quite evil of ultraviolet LEDs would looke awesome. The labels and everything else would reflect a different amount of light.

should look really cool.
