It's reminiscent of my UV build about 20 years ago. I had a Chieftec Dragon with a mountain of UV CCLs and LEDs in it. It glowed, but it was a nice, understated glow.

Very underrated case for sure. I remember seeing them always being advertised in PC magazines and very few people had one

Around the same time I either had one of these icute cases...

but mine came with a different side panel.

After the icute, I had an NZXT Guardian followed by a thermaltake shark

So you could say my days of going crazy with flashy LEDs died pretty early on.

I remember when all acrylic cases were all the rage.

Mine was a special UV one. Didnt see many. You had to get the old school UV cold cathodes for it to really shine.

I've been finding it a little harder to find UV light for cases these days that was as effective as those cathodes.

Hell yeah. i was about to post this exact comment. I think mineral oil PCs came not long after the clear acrylic cases. Some folks started building their setups into a fish tank and cooling it with mineral oil because it wasnt electrically conductive.

Not a craze that lasted long or gained much ground really.

Oh yeah, LEDs (especially at the time) couldn't match the even light output. I had a number of 19" U shaped ones scattered through out my Dragon case and that combined with the UV reactive paint I coated the inside with really lit it up.
