Hi, wondered if anyone could help or give me some advice. It&#39;s probably quite a simple question but I freely admit I ain&#39;t got a clue. :rolleyes:

I am thinking on getting a new case for my pc and I also fancy getting some lights and stuff to brighten it up a bit, so I kinda have two or so questions.

1) are new cases easy to fit and am I likely to come across any problems?

2) are fitting the lights, strips, fans etc easy to do and do they need any special equipment and do they need a seperate power source

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me

Thanks :)

the new cases are easy to work with and if ur having space problems in ur room or somethin u could get one of those small box ones but they are harder to work with. for the second question i dont think u need extra power sources because those neon lights connect to any extra connectors that come from ur power source but i suggest u get like a 400 watt supply cuz ur going to be adding extra stuff which eats up alot of power.

remember if you buy a new case you&#39;re gonna have to move everything from your current one to the new one.

if you do, remember to take pitcures/draw sketches of current setup i.e. where certain cables go

also, remember to mount the motherboard so it&#39;s not in contact with your case. that could be disastrous if you forget...

yup, be really careful that your motherboard is seated on the poking up chassis parts, with them poking through the golden coloured holes, otherwise you could fry it...
