it will look good trust me. i have leds on my memory, 2 aluminum led fans and a firefly in the hard drive molex connector and they look good together(prolly seen it in my thread). leds are far not as bright as ccfl's.

fans are in the front hidden by the hd's and dont have much effect in the inside. the firefly is in the top hd. check out the updates too.

2 of my LED fans are in the back exausting and 1 is in the side pannel. i think they will blend in nicely.

I have CoolerMaster Purlple LED fans, each with 4 bright purple leds, and 12" UV CCLF's. There are 2 of the CCFL's and 6 of the LED fans, two on the back of the case, two on the front, one on the blow hole, and one on the side panel... and it ROCKS... though I have decided to replace all the fans with UV LED fans, as all that purple light is muting the effect of the UV CCFL's.

well i decided not to get them. even though it was only $7, my LEDs give a nice glow and there is no point in spending money

shouldnt purple led's give a uv effect? the blue led's in my fans give uv's effects and purple is a shorter wave length that blue so they should too :?

Put a Million-Lumen flashlight in there; that'll brighten things up! :p
Go ahead and get them. Experiment with the results.

i didnt get them. my fans are enough for plus i dont want to spend any more money
Ok, there's 3x QuadBlue LED fans, and two Blue CCFL's (one hidden) in this case. This was my first project... I dont feel that the Fans give the comp enough light, even at night, and i prefer to have the CCFL's off while gaming, for glare reasons... ( as my comps on my desk)...

And yes, the cables are now managed properly... that was taken just after lighting completion... Which is why the drives are stealthed and painted yet.
And this is how the lighting went in a local lan i went to (case still not done - lol) See if you can spot my case... =D
