For some reason the uv lights keeps flickering. If i move the cable around it stops for a second, but when my case is idling the light flickers. Im sure there is no way to fix this, only to get a new light but is this common to have issues with cold cathodes this early? Oh and i got my cold cathodes from PCtoys.
i really dont have any soldering skills to mod it. I e-mailed coolerguys.com to maybe rma it. But im gonna check if there any lose connections but i doubt it since one of the cathodes isnt even working at all. The second one now is just berly shining.
someone suggested that maybe my powersupply is too weak to support everything. You guys think this could be true?

That is always an option, load up motherboard monitor and check out the 12V and 5V line at idle and at full load. You can tell alot about how your power supply is doing. If they flucuate alot (esp. at load, towards lower voltages) then you might have a power supply issue. Motherboard Monitor
