What lights do you guys usually use? I wanna light the roof of my case with some LEDs, but I can't find anything that will fit.

Pfft, I can barely see the actual machine! just a bunch of monitors. =D

Yea I kind of think that is what the gallery is for but, nonetheless nice rig.One heck of a heatsink.

Dont really have a window on any of my current rigs anymore. I used to love my old UV case. Kinda grew out of it.

Now, I just run some LEDs the back I/O panel and Expansion area. Each rig gets a different color. It looks like its spilling out the back when the lights are off. Tasteful Tackiness I call it.

What kind of LEDs do you guys use?

outside lookin in

I have posted this one when I initially built it, but quit a bit has changed. I just ordered a Phenom II 955 BE from newegg to replace the KUMA 7750 BE (I was insanely jealous of Super's super_Pi score of 22 sec . so the final specs will be:

DFI DK 790FX M2RS
Phenom II 955 BE @ 4Ghz?
8 Gb OCZ Gold edition DDRII
Triple CrossfireX 3x ATI HD 4830 @ 755/935
Sigma Shark 635W + FSP Group Booster X5 500W
2x Seagate Barracuda 500Gb S.A.T.A II 7000.12 HDD
OCZ Vendetta HS&F
ASUS Lightscribe CD/DVD/DL
Case: SunbeamTech AC-1 with corefan
Windows Vista x64 home premium

The mod I guess is that I routed out the bottom for the heat sink on the 3rd 4830, it draws air from under the case....right there where my daughter slid the poker chips

Damn, way to over kill, I wanted a clear case like that, but they're a big pain to build.

I wanna put this type of LED in my computer:

 

[red1776]

why what do you mean overkill Blind!? wouldnt be the 4Gb's of superfluous useless ram would it? LOL
that those LED boards you like are among the products I sell for a living. you can get them with an effects controller.

 

[BlindObject]

Is the price good for those boards?

 

[red1776]

unfortunately for the ones that are programmable, they are really spendy.

 

[sllewe]

Wow Red1776. Nice rig inside and out. That thing must be blazing fast.

 

[red1776]

it is AtK, i will put my config up against a GTX 295 (witch is 2 GTX 9800's sandwiched together at a heatsink) for 200 bucks less...there...that should draw some fire LOL

 

[klepto12]

lol the 295 is 2 gtx 260s basically with the 280 core and the 295 would pwn 3 4830s.

 

[red1776]

lol, told ya it would draw fire

klepto, is the 260 basically a
'refreshed' 9800 gtx?

 

[klepto12]

um no the gtx 260 is far better card your thinking of the 250 man the 260 is in the same league as the 4870 man.

read this then youll understand http://www.guru3d.com/article/geforce-gtx-295-review-bfg/2

 

[red1776]
