So, I've finally made up my mind. I'm going to throw some blue neon strips into the case, but there's a bit of a snag...
Where am I supposed to pick these up without just settling for some cheap fan with built-in blue LEDs? And more importantly, how do I actually wire these things—do they plug straight into the motherboard or what?

The PA has those Molex connectors in the Lincoln... they connect right to the Molex too.

So, if it’s not showing up on Ve-Mil's price list, how are we supposed to find it? And what exactly is this Molex thing anyway? Where do you even track that down, and what kind of damage am I looking at for a single neon strip?

Good grief. I feel like I have to draw you a map just to get a point across. You definitely earned yourself a 🙂

Just use Google—it’s actually pretty helpful if you try...

Just one more thing... if I decide to swap out the neon lights myself, am I going to void my warranty?

Honestly, you're better off taking the rig to an auto electrician to have them install the neons—otherwise, you're just asking to void your warranty.
Just make sure you track down a certified pro first.
😂
Wait, do the neons even come with their own warranty?

Look, I'm not talking about some random neon lights, I mean my actual computer
Because, as far as I know, the only people allowed to even touch this rig are the technicians at the service center where I bought it.

Man, just grab some neon lights then—and have someone else handle the installation for you...

Just strip the warranty with a heat gun. If you actually know how...

He’s probably gonna view that as high-level math 😬

Hard to tell for sure from this angle, but it doesn't look half bad...
Post a bigger picture already.

What on earth is going on here? Not a single post has surfaced in three whole days.

Man, what can I even say? @Vale 41, maybe try posting some larger images—and hey, what's your handle over at the PC Modding forums?

So, does anyone here happen to have this specific potentiometer handy? I just pulled the trigger on an order for one, and I’m sitting here wondering if I actually made a massive mistake or if I’ve actually scored a winner... 😁

Plus, the price point is just so low... which honestly makes me a little skeptical about the quality🤷
