you could use it to light the inside of case, or even use it to wrap fan wires etc for a cool look.

wrap fan wires? really

I wrapped them around my CCFL's. I bought the EL wire thinking it was the coolest thing since sliced bread, but then I had the most difficlt time on how to use them. I rarely turn this on but it is a cool feature to have. The EL wire is at the bottom in case all the lighting makes you miss it. :)

yeah i see it, looks pretty sweet...is that el around your water tubes also?

No, This is an aircooled system. I put the anti-kink wrap around the PSU wiring to attempt to make the wires all look the same, and it was based on a clear see through telephone I remeber seeing in the 80's, all the wires were extra long and spirialed. It was pretty neat.

What are you planning with EL? I wanted to line the entire case with the stuff and really make it glow. But it is more difficult to glue along case edges then I thought.

Just Google "EL wire case mods" and click on images...lots of ideas. Guides available in regular search.

I'm currently workning on hiding small l.e.d.'s around my mobo to light it up. It looks great with just 2 installed so far, I get a pic.

Even with the stock cooler it looks awesome x awesome! It looks very professional and neat at the same time. I guess I should do this on a future build.
