Default Rate My UV Rig - Post your UV lit rig

Have you added UV lighting to your PC. Post pictures of your black lit rig, the next person gives a rating out of ten.

It does not matter what hardware is in the rig, the rating has to based on looks.
Yes I am very superficial:

Here's mine:

I'd say 8/10. I love your case and the water cooling always looks awesome with UV. I think a little more could be done to make it really "pop" with color under the UV. Great job!



Here's my contribution (I would have loved to do water cooling in this case, but I built it for a friend and WC was out of his budget):

Your's looks radioactive, awesome!. What paints did you use, and do you have to be careful where you apply it?

Just post it, Pepsi. I'd love to see a 360 with some UV lovin' applied to it.

Hey Pig, I spent hours using ClearNeon paint with small paintbrushes, but that stuff looked awful - like I had smeared inconsistent, spotty goo on a part, rather than painted it. I would have painted a cable end and some spots would react, some wouldn't and others really faint, some bright. BLAH! I washed the stuff off and started over.

I used Sharpie Accent Liquid Highlighters, orange, yellow, pink and to a lesser degree blue and green. I found the pens at WalMart and have seen them at Target too. I was careful, took my time and spent no more than an hour rubbing highlighter on the various upraised areas. The only caveat is that the highlighter on the bare metal rubs off if you touch it, so don't touch it.

If you wanted to try it on your system, take a flourescent yellow highlighter and accent one edge of the acrylic or a PCI card of some sort, see if you like the results. If not, then wipe off. Just that easy.

I use 4 AC Ryan UV Cold Cathodes and don't really like them (had to RMA them 3 times to get 2 working sets). I think that the UV CCs that CyberDruid sells are probably better and cheaper.

Hope this info helps.
