addding lights to my pc

[samstalker]

hi guys i saw this case http://cougargaming.com/products/cases/mx310/ , and i'm thinking to get it with some lights, what colours should i get? someone suggested blue and cherry red would it look good if i get blue fans in the front red in the back and blue and red strip lights?

wow man it doesn't have a disk drive bay does it?

No it doesn't.
Get an external DVD reader, they're really cheap.
Also 1m is plenty, will do a full loop of your case.
In terms of LEDs I already told you, it will be fine if you get red with your case since most of your other components are red, but its your choice, I can't help you on personal preference.

ok then i'll just open the side and wire it when i need to use the disk drive as i use it about once every month , but what i was thinking is that the red psu will be in a box so it's colour won't appear witch will make the blue of the motherboard the most colour in the case

maybe you like red, after all i'm gonna keep upgrading hardware in that matter i look only for performance so colours will keep changing in the case ,and as if the psu will be hidden in a box the only colour left is blue even there is some blue wires so i'll get the blue or was thinking about an rgb light what do you think?

True.
I suppose blue will be more pleasing in your case. I'm just not a fan of the baby blue color that motherboard has!
The S340 blue version matches it perfectly though if that's what you want to do. Note however that blue LEDs will have a much different color to them than your motherboard and case, making it look kind of strange, which is another reason I recommended going full red.
It's up to you again, personal preference.

The first lot are intended for TVs, and plug in via USB, making them unusable inside your case, and the second lot are only compatible with select Phanteks cases.
Stick with the NZXT LEDs.

The NZXT Hue+ is very good, but pricy! 😱
You'll want to pick up an extension kit if this is your choice, because there is only 60cm of LEDs (2x30cm) included in the default kit, so not a good investment in your case due to the price.
You mean the Hue+ 100%, because the regular Hue is a 5.25" bay slot in.
I'd recommend putting it in the 3.5" bay for easier access.

In regards to the ones you've listed, they seem alright, but are by a brand i've never heard of, so I wouldn't risk it.
Brands like these put up big claim products with LEDs that will probably fail in a week.
Stick with the NZXT LEDs i've listed and be done with it, the only quality LEDs that you're going to find for that price full stop.

I'm getting extremely frustrated at this point.
3 times now, i've explained something to you, and then you make 3 posts asking the exact same question I just answered.
"You mean the Hue+ 100%, because the regular Hue is a 5.25" bay slot in."
PLEASE.
Read before you post.
Buy the NZXT LED strips and the S340.
We're done here. 🙁

Does it really matter? T.T
Get the S340 and the 1m NZXT sleeved LEDs, they are the best choice for your build given your budget.
The main reason I was so frustrated posting above is that this thread has dragged on for waaay too long than it needed to.
Should have ended about 7 posts ago! 🙁
Not going to pursue this much further, if it gets to another 5 posts i'm just gonna leave it.
The Hue+ is way out of your budget range.
You can either get what i've recommended or keep chasing different options if you want.
That is all.

What are you confused about?
You won't find good RGB LEDs within your price range, best to make a decision now on colors.
Its as simple as red or blue, and buying it.
