I have this build: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/23nPW
The Fractal Design Arc Midi R2's smoked window is pretty dark, so I decided to put some lighting into my build. Since I have a red mechanical keyboard and mouse, I decided on a red colour.
I ran into 2 choices:
- NZXT Sleeved LED 1m ($15)
- NZXT Sleeved LED 2m ($18)

-Bitfenix Alchemy Strip 30cm ($20)

From my perspective (Without any previous experience with case LEDs), I see that the NZXT Sleeved lighting strips are very compelling to buy. They include a PCI bracket for me to turn on/off or control behind my PC which is a feature I like. They also come in a longer length and cost less. The Alchemy strips seem a bit short, but I heard people like to use them.
Has anyone tried these 2 products or used any other product that you can recommend for under $20-$25? Thanks in advance!
P.S. I am Canadian and all prices from above come from the links at NCIX Canada.
