If you're interested in following me further, feel free to check out my gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/@LamentersGaol Here's part 2 of this case mod: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNou4ba-ZH8 This mod took me quite a bit of time, and included some things I've never tried before. The PSU shroud backlit decal is one of the things, and I was able to power it by attaching the LED strip to a series of adapters and then to the PSU. The fan LEDs on the front are controlled by a physical controller instead of software, so I was able to make them red to match the theme without actually having a PC built inside yet. I do suggest buying these fans by the way, they're awesome. At the end you can see me struggling with the fan hole alignment, but it ended up being an easy fix. Figuring out how to fix mistakes is good experience so I'm alright with making one now and then. My socials!
