So here is my recent update for my built PS thanks for the suggestions :) got 2 new case fans for the top as well. Also does anyone have any suggestions for any type of case lighting with controller that works well and is cheap on Amazon.ca/.com?

I bought two USB blue LED strips.. just plug then into the back and you can turn them on/off as you want on amazon.com (http://"http://www.amazon.com/Antec-Accent-Lighting-Blue-USB-powered/dp/B007TG5ECW?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00")

my cpu and front case fan plugin to my CPU fan headers and the rest just in the normal fan header spots on the board

The mobo manual should have it but if not this may help  I attached a photo where I circled all the fan headers. there are a total of 5 headers on the msi z97 gaming 5 board

I have MSI G43 motherboard but it looks almost the same in terms of where they are..... since I am getting a new one, I can simply reuse the one by the CPU fan
