    I'll give it a shot. If not I might try to make my own. Or buy another... not really expensive.

    Or you could wire up your own led's for the feet.

    I put a 62 Ohms resistor in place of the one that burnt out and it worked fine. Though after about 3 minutes it got pretty hot. What size should I try next? FYI 62 is the biggest I have so I have to order in some.

    I put a 68-ohm 1/4W resistor in-line with a CPU cooling fan it hardly gets warm. I put 1/8 (TINY) resistors in my LED setups and they don't get warm at all. If a resistor that big got that hot something's not right

    Got the backplates in today for the GTX 560Ti's. I'm painting them now and will install tomorrow.

    Default GTX 560 Ti Backplates

    So I painted the backplates and got them installed. They greatly improve the look of the case.



    Also the cards have a much more "snug" fit. Which is good because I thought the weight of the water blocks would hurt the cards eventually.

    Later this week I will play with the case feet LEDs again and see if I can't get them working better. I might have to order some new resistors but I'll probably wait and just pick them up in the states when I'm on vacation.

    Cheers till next time.

    Wow, that's really nice looking! Very clean and seemless appearance.
