Yup nice and clean work Daz. Looks good.

Beautiful build! Thank you for the videos. They were definitely interesting in their own way! Very well done for that short period of time you had!

[MemBusX]

Yeah. Very Nice. The cable deal must have been frustrating lol. Circuit Protection is your friend.

Question. Without fan controller. Is there a way to dim LED strips? I was going for good ol Cold Cathode for my build because the light is more uniform but Dimming is a nice feature with those LED's

With modern motherboards you can udervolt fan headers and dim lights attached to them.

Alright. Makes sense. Thanks.

I didn't know they plugged into fan headers. I always thought they were powered directly from the PSU like the Cathodes

I'm finding this works good in the BIOS, but for some reason on my Asus Crosshair VI, the fan control software won't let me dim them in Windows. If I enter the BIOS, I can dim them though, but they brighten up as soon as Windows starts. Maybe the secret is to uninstall Asus Fan Xpert and just let the BIOS dictate. Haven't tried that yet.

I have same BS with Gigabyte mobo, for some reason setting wont persist.

I've also had problems with Asus Suite. It conflicted with Corsair Link, so in the end I had to ditch it. Thing with BIOS though on Asus boards. The minimum you can do is 60% I don't know why. My computer fans are kinda loud that way using 2500 RPM SP120's front intake on idle

Looks great Daz!

The blue liquid is subtle and very nice, while adding a tiny bit of an accent to the mostly black build. Great work!

The fan headers on Gigabyte are the worst. They only have PWM (curve) settings even for DC 3-pin fans (or Darkside LED). MSI, Asrock and Asus all have manual settings where you can generally set them as voltage and put out a percentage.

Gigabyte is only a "PWM" type setting or full speed from my experience.

Aurus supposed to have it fixed, but i did not tried yet.
