Hi there, i juz wanna ask whether the Blue LED and cooling fan in ur casing consumes a lot of electricity?
Thx.

It does not.. but it will attract a lot of bugs at night

agree with J-slade

yup no problem for me,

bug ? what kind of bug

bug????

LOL

Serangga la..

But if you want the numbers, 20-100 normal/superbright/ultrabright LEDs of any colour will consume the same power as 1 casing fan. 6-20 casing fans consume as much power as a non-overclocked processor/graphic card. Do the math..

HAHA...yeah thats true~!! =D

Thx 4 the info, the fan u mean is 8cm, 12cm or 25cm?

80, 92 or 120mm will do. Assuming aroung 0.5-1.5A per fan.

I stand corrected-I forgot to factor in the difference in voltage..

So the correct figure is actually 100-500 LEDs equals to 1 fan..rest of what I said is correct.

i dont know eather use a lot of fans need more power....coz i also add n add n add.......even my PSU is chipalan one hehe
but maybe u need to think about ur computer usage first before thinking about the power that LED will take...
i think...
bugs???? hmmm... no wonder at night my room has a lot of mosquitoo haha

bro y u scare use a lots of electric? scare ur PSU cant support or scare TNB bil high?

assuming ur LED is SuperBright Blue LED .... sweat;

Standard 30mA 2.5V
High intensity 30mA 5.5V
Super bright 30mA 2.5V
Low current 30mA 2.0V

Power = Volt * Ampere
Power = 5.5 * 0.03
Power = 0.165 Watt

Assume 1KW/J = RM 0.23 ...
Cost = 0.000165 * 0.23
Cost = RM 0.00003795 per Hour

RM 0.10 for 263,504.61 hours (33.8 years)

ps: i go bankrupt if wan to make business for this length duration.

-@@- c, i blur when c that math. my pc use a lot of bling2 fan n lamp. but in the end of a month. i just pay... but my electricity about rm90 for a not married house.

ya lol, me also blur lol
a lots of led can make ur CPU bcome hot or not?

slightly .. hot .. if u got bout 30LED it's 1-2 deg celcius ambient .. get a fan all clear ..

but as i know .. if u got a good power supply which is 80PLUS conversion efficiency .. then u'll save power .. but get those cheapo power supply, the conversion is worst .. 60% or so .. the rest all burn in heat ..

then which PSU u recommend?

la...no wonder my code always cannot compile.
ada bug rupanya....

Not a chance..unless you happen to be using lots of 1 watt luxeon LEDs. But then you'll need super dark sunglasses even if you want to on your PC.. 1 luxeon is like staring into a car highlights at less than 10cm..

Lolz.....
