hi, im new to this lark and theres a couple of bits and pieces im after for my project butim having difficulty finding the bits i need here in the UK. any advice as to where to look? (tried overclockers.co.uk and ebay.co.uk already) basically what im after is a PCI fan controller, a Mini USB light up cable and i was after a blue LCD screen (saw one called Blue Eye?! and it looked pretty good) any ideas? thanks
Kustom do a fan controller might suit your needs, the t-balancer , its on there front page cant miss it, and i know where you can get a very nice, large 320x240 lcd , will end up costing you about £70 , or a 240x128 green for about £30. Both in the info screen forum if you want a look. http://forum.lcdinfo.com/viewforum.php?f=16 hope that helped.
ok thx for the response. ive not heard of Kustom before but they seem to have a good selection of stuff (including a blue LCD screen, which i may buy). in terms of the PCI fan controller i was after a manual one, i dont have room for a 5.25 or 3.5 bay one... the only other option is buy a 3.5 drive bay one and try to fit it to the back of the case.
Gosh, you are new aren't you? First off: welcome to the forums! Enjoy your level-up to a totally new level of geekness. For future reference: always consult the useful sticky at the top of this sub-forum! Edit: The VL Sytems Blue Eye looks sort of pretty but doesn't do anything that a Matrix Orbital VFD combined with LCDC software wouldn't do (better). I'd look around a bit more before making up your mind.
Excellent shop, run by modders for modders. Id not hesitate but to buy from them, infact I even got my boss at work to put an order for some bits through them. Even got a discount for buying in bult too which was nice
