The strip will use between 1 and 3 watts of power. Your system total is less than 300W so that little kid eating at the big boys table won't negatively affect anything.

only thing the lights do is add flavor to your pc. the little it takes to run from the firmware is negligible. your ivy bridge board probably doesn't have a rgb header so wouldn't even be connected to anything but psu
