Hi!

I have 4 strips of Bitfenix Alchemy LED strips (2 x 30 cm, and 2 x 12 cm) to put in Corsair Air 240.

1) My question is, if I were to put the 2 long ones in the top and bottom, and the two short ones on the front and back, what would be the cleanest way to plug them in?

2) I am a a noob to LEDing computers, so what connection would I use?

3) Would they just plug in the power supply or motherboard? My motherboard is the MSI H97 G43.

Thank you very much!

2/3) they connect to molex, the 4 pin power connector from the power supply. you should have the adapter in the package.

1) you would want the tail ends that need to be plugged in a bit out of sight, and route the molex connector for them behind the motherboard to a hole in the tray it can peek through as close to where the led strip needs it to be. that way you dont have extra cable out in view without need.
