    Just installed a set of blue cold cathode lights in my new Xoxide chassis. Worked for the first day. Since then they only light up halfway. Do you think they're defective? Could I have done something incorrect? PSU inferior, maybe? So many questions. Thought some of you might be able to "shed some light on my situation". All puns intended. :)

    Run the calculator. Estimates I need about 245 watts (+30%=320). Actually not sure what kind of PSU I have. Never checked. :/ Anyway, I did notice in BIOS (when I was messing with OC'ing) that my vcore power setting is set at 1.66 and doesn't seem to be adjustable.

    Any recommendation on PSU's?

    on 1 of the sides of your psu is a label that indicates what the wattage is on it.
