How to install LED in MSI Z97S SLI Plus ATX LGA1150 Motherboard?

[Dinosauce]

I just want to know how to install LED in to MSI Z97S SLI Plus ATX LGA1150 Motherboard.

 

[Alex Kelly]

What sort of LED? Confused.

 

[Dinosauce]

What do you mean by that? ( LED inside the case _

 

[Alex Kelly]

Like, an LED lighting kit? this has nothing to do with the motherboard, it just connects to the PSU.

 

[Dinosauce]

Ohhh so how do i do it?

 

[Alex Kelly]

You just need to connect the LED kit to the MOLEX connector coming out of the PSU.
Have you already decided on a lighting kit? If so, link to it me.

I really don't know I want it to be green to match with my keyboard, mice and headset which is green

[Alex Kelly]

That's a low quality 600W PSU that you've included, I wouldn't recommend it. I'll add a lighting kit and better PSU to the build for ya.

 

[Dinosauce]

Oh ok but i already ordered the 600w psu

 

[Alex Kelly]

Aw dang, that's okay. It'll work, I was just going to suggest something of higher quality.
What do ya think of this?

My case is a Fractal Design r4 Windowed

 

[Alex Kelly]

Yup I know

 

[Dinosauce]

I would probably need like a straight line of the led on the case cuz i don't like it to be in like dots.

 

[Dinosauce]

Like a trail I don't know. I will upgrade the PSU soon.

 

[Alex Kelly]

ah, okay. one second.

 

[Dinosauce]

Ok thx

All LED strips are in dots, but after that unit is inside the case you won't see the individual dots.

 

[Dinosauce]

Yep, exactly like that . It would be better if I can change colour to what I want if that is possible. ( Sorry for asking sooooo much, but thank you for your fast support )

 

[Alex Kelly]

All good! I don't know of any LED strips that have custom lighting, sorry! D:

 

[Dinosauce]

Ohh okay thank you for your support

 

[Alex Kelly]

No worries at all
I'll have a look around for one though.
Have you already bought the case? I know a case (Phanteks Enthoo Luxe) that supports custom LED lighting.

 

[Dinosauce]

I found a KIT for LED that has a remote, receiver and LED http://www.amazon.com/XKTTSUEERCRR-Non-Waterproof-5050-Strip-Light/dp/B006LW2NJM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1407861775&sr=8-1&keywords=5050+SMD+300+LED and yes I do have the case.

 

[Alex Kelly]

I don't think that's for a PC, man! 😛
