  • ewwww its not even a sata cable its just a molex XD this pc is so old

  • @threatfiree Dude, the video is 3 years old, damn.. Molex still exist in even the latest PSU's and still offer the connectivity of Cathodes in the same way I showed here

  • for plugging it in,do I just take out the wire that goes into my optical drive, plug in the cathode one and then plug it back in?

  • @IxTeejxI Yup, simple as that. I've since learned you don't need to plug the other end back in and the lights will still work but obviously, in this case, the DVD drive would not

  • @RazerWire722 awesome. thanks for the help.

    I got 2 x 12” Acrylic encased Cold cathode light tubes. 1x Inverter which has 2 connections for the 2 tubes. 1x Power Cable. 1x PCI mountable Rocker Switch ON/OFF. 1x Fixing kit Velcro or sticky pads for £7( $11) is that a good deal or did I get ripped off?

  • @IxTeejxI Yeah, sounds good to me! Lot of stuff there for not a lot of pennies
