Guide Ha Ha EVGA mine lights up as well

Well EVGA recently brought out their new SLI bridges myself and a few others all agreed they was so much better than the standard bridge as you can see in the pic below



Even though the EVGA bit only would light up for GTX 770 upwards but still an improvement on the standard one's.

Now got me thinking

 

So I thought WHY I want mine to light up too I mean how hard can it be must have some led's in there I thought, So I bought another one Damn import and handling charges just in case I rendered it useless

Anyway I started by looking on the back and noticed 4 screws so with my trusty scissors I unscrewed them lol

 

Right so with the cover removed I saw that the LED's was part of the PCB not much chance of getting them to work then, I need a simpler way.

 

So having a look at the inside of the cover there was a black plastic piece either side of the clear Perspex piece with the EVGA, I removed the lower piece and put a groove in the bottom of the cover with the old dremmel.

 

Next thing was to sort through my bits of junk and found a short LED strip so I soldered some cable on sleeved it and attached the other end to a molex connector

 

Next was to fix it in the cover I used mastic to stick it with ( no pic's of that ) worked great

 

I let the mastic go off and put it back together and plugged it on to my test PSU and.........




So you don't have to buy new GPU's to get it lit up

 

That's a sweet mod.

 

Very nice Teel!

 

Now all you need is the glitter ball

 

Nice work

 

And the final picture with it in the rig

Makes me tempted to buy another when they're back on EVGA (to avoid customs ) and give this a go myself

And thanks people, for a few hours work I really like it

Think I'll post it on the EVGA forum lol

 

That's some nice work
