I decided to make a thread to show off everything I have. Sure, there are many much better products available but these are the best in my friends circle and relatives :p :) And also, my computer may not be as "monster" as of many others, but its still the best computer I have used till now.. :))

LED Lights in Cabinet.
From long time I wanted a cabinet with lights but I was unable to get LED fans locally and I dont want to go very far. So, after thinking a lot, I got an idea about having LEDs in cabinet itself rather than in fans. This is both, my "2-days timepass" and something that looks nice n I wanted.

Here are some pics:

What actually is there....
*dl.dropbox.com/u/31104340/Good/DSC00116.JPG
2 LEDs[green and blue] and a battery. :D


With only green LEDs in front
*dl.dropbox.com/u/31104340/Good/DSC00122.JPG

I am planning to join a switch and add another battery and a few more LEDs(around 5) to it... maybe tomorrow or on Monday. I will post the images of complete lighting then :p. Really, I am impressed by what I did and I am very happy with these lights. I just have a question, Is it possible to connect these LEDs to somewhere in PSU/Motherboard so that I dont have to use battery??

Rest of "All I have"

nice rig.which cabby is that?I think you need some serious cable management.
the wallpaper is great but why don't you increase the transparency?

Thanks. Its a CM Elite 310. I dont like the design of cabinet very much, but with LEDs in it, its looking great..!
Even I think that there is need of some cable management but... I am a noob at this too.. :p And I like with around 70% transparency only.... :D

^^That looks great!!

How much did it cost to you? How did you fix the glass?

And how did you cut the side panel(which tools or from whom)?? :D

acrylic sheet 100+ bought from GLASS SHOP. the glass was cut by them according to the side panel design.

gum 80 rs. but unfortunately the gum does not work out. you may try feviquik.

the side panel was cut by an electrician friend(free of cost). you may try grillmaker also. the tool is sheet cutter.

that car decor is just a strip without any wire. it has a +ve and -ve sign. you need to weld small wires according to the length and then insert it inside the MOLEX. bought for 100/- per foot.

Well does that mean if I also connect my LED's wires to it, it will work? Thats nice.....

Guess what? I plugged LEDs into a wire which was similar to one in which fan was connected, but a little smaller. I switched it on and pressed power button on CPU to see what happens, for about 1/4th second green light came from LEDs and suddenly it changed to red and approximately after 2 more seconds I heard a pop sound..... :)) All my LEDs are dead now... but luckily everything is fine; I was scared :p
