whoa... thats nice , too bad there are no radio shacks around here, have to look around thought to be sure.

He should also add like a shield for the eyes, so instead of looking at the really bright light.......

some newer motherboards have this kinda lights built in right? but most lanparty has somany ports

nice simple but effective mod.
time to give the board more light like it needs it

The formula at the end of the oc post made my head hurt! I may have to try that sometime. Seems fun!

This seems cool. I need to find a case window or make one though.

Awesome...I've been thinking about doing something with LEDs. I think I might run some wire though and mount them somewhere else so they're shining AT the motherboard and not blinding me.

I found a nice little guide for wiring LEDs...check it out if you're interested.

Just tried this mod and it works great......I used molex power instead of the fan header though

I went a step further and mounted LEDs under my mobo hooked up to a switch...pics soon

Interesting reading.I might try this for my free fan headers.

i like it. good find

Damn it lol, I've got 3 LEDs, 3 dead fans and 3 resistors sitting next to me, AND I'm taking my PC apart anyway tomorrow.

Must...resist...

Very nice find ... noted ....
