im looking to put together a system with the DFI lan party and i want it not to look like crap. The reviews and stuff say that it uses UV reactive material and their are the PSU's that have black lights in them.

are black light and UV the same things? i dont wanna buy the PSU and have it drown out the UV

has any 1 had any experiance with DFI, black/UV lights? any tips?

this is the PSU i was looking at

    i would suggest going with a quality PSU and buy uv wire loom or similar product to cover the wires on the psu and then buy 2 UV light for your case./

    The big recommendation about a clear acrylic case is cable management. Get some cable ties and take your time wiring it. Plan...plan...plan..then do it otherwise it will look very messy. Acrylic cases leave nothing to hide.

    Right, but you've never built them for yourself. Are you finally coming to the dark side or are you just building it for someone else again?
