I use this case and I avoided using up a valuable slot and still was able
to use digital audio by "cutting" a hole in the back of the case to
mount the S/PDIF plugs.  There's lots of room above the onboard
connector panel for it.

Blue wouldn't be bad, if it wasn't sooooo bright. It lights up the entire room
at night. I just pulled the LED power...
