No its because the case is curved in the front, its not flat. Thats why they look dimmer, but they are actually all the same. Go look at a PS3 and you can see the front is curved.
Yes I know how a ps3 looks. I don't live under a rock.
Regardless, wiring in series isn't the best... I'm just saying, that's all.

Thanks yall, it does look nice but wait to you see it in action. I'm just editing the video right now, been up in 3 hours or so. I really need upgrade my computer it's really slow using Pinnacle PowerDirector7. If I win I would rather have cash to put a decent graphics card in lol, I'm in need of a new rig. I really only use this computer for homework and browsing, but the PSP would be cool regardless, I've never owned one personally. I start school tomorrow :( im gonna cry 2day

A+ for effort, A for logo, B for specs, C- for the job, F- for music taste.
XD

You should've done a KMK song for the PVU demo, they've got a good range for the pulsing.

I like it.

It did.
If you ever go back and work on this in the future, you should make those 2 lines above/below "Playstation 3" into VU meters. Make the top one pulse to the right, and the bottom one pulse to the left. That'd be awesome.

I did a little battery life test for fun on my 9 LED dualshock3 and I got 4hrs 17min from a full charge playing COD4. I can now say it will only be used as a spare or as a display item. 15hrs is the normal life of an unmodified DS3, my 9 LED controller is now hopelessly impracticle.

haha

Well the mobo is pretty much the same size as the case. and the blu-ray drive is around 8inch x 5inch or so. I aint gonna open it up anytime soon, I dont wanna screw one of my wires up.

ok lol i wouldnt want to open that up with those wires O.o but thx for the blu-ray who knew it was hard to find out dimensions of internal parts XD

But this is for a...project that im planning and getting ready for whenever we have another mod off. :D

if you want to dim your lights slightly, lower the voltage going to them a little... it will also extend the life slightly, or drastically if your slightly over-volting them....


nice mod, kinda messy, but the outside is all that matters. (i woulda used 0603 led's) heh.. but then again i dont has ps3, but i can has led's!

great work, and congrats!
