Buying A VFD??? (1 Viewer)

[crazyfool]

hey guys,
I currently have an antec micro fusion case and have set up the lcd screen to work with mp. However tbh the screen is absolute rubbish and really difficult to read from anywhere but lying on the floor in fron tof it. So... I am browsing the net looking for somewhere to buy a vfd screen to replace it. So far this is the only one i can find from a reputable company...
KustomPCs.co.uk - VFD Filter Blue (4 line)
Was just wondering if anyone has this or could suggest where to buy a vfd to replace the antecs lcd screen...

That just looks like a Blue filter to go over a VFD, not an actual VFD.

My case has an Imon VFD; which is also rubbish....so I can recommend not getting that!

I agree. My next case will be without it. I won't exactly call it rubbish but not worth the extra money imo.

so your both saying i should just forget about getting a display because they all suck?

I am not saying it sucks, just that next time I will not spend extra money on it.

The cheapest place and a well supported vfd can be bought here:
USB VFD Kit (With VFD) | D-Vine HTPC
Used it to upgrade my ahanix case.
My personal opinion is it can be very helpful.
I use it to put on some music without turning on the tv, works brilliant.
It's really a personal taste, some like it some don'tm some cases look better with one some don't....
