Mikhailtech has posted a 12 Multi-Color Cold Cathode Kit review



All was well and I was done with this review, ready to post. Then hunger kicked in, so I went to grab some munchies and left the system running. I come back 30 minutes later and notice the light went out. There's also a stench in the room. Something burning. Uh oh.
