I'll never understand how people can use towers like this. Isn't it distracting having constantly flashing/pulsing lights in your peripheral vision?
Mine isn't lit up like a Christmas tree but my ram strobes and you just get used to it.
I might be on the high end to sensitivity to this because I've even gone so far as covering my monitor's power lights with electric tape.
First thing I did when I got my new PC was disable every single internal LED. My monitor mercifully doesn't have a power light on the front, but I did cover my speakers' power light with electric tape. Fuck whoever started the trend of replacing unobtrusive red LEDs with blinding blue LEDs.
yeeeeeaaaaah, im over it at this point. the only LED that is on in my case is the ryzen CPU fan, which i cant turn off for some reason. Even my keyboards have the LEDs disabled.
I set my keyboard to have dim static LEDs so it really just looks like colored key labels that you can also see in the dark.
Do they have those god damn blue LEDs? Piercing fucking flashlight blue LEDs? I had some speakers that had to be turned off at night because they literally lit up the entire room, which I fixed with a few layers of the sticky part from a sticky note. Later that fell off to reveal it had been bleached white by the LED
They're actually pretty dim but they are blue.
