Hi,

Quick question...

Do LCD's and VFD's use the same software? I like the looks of the VFD's better, by looking at the pics on the web anyway. They appear to be a lot brighter.

I want to put one in my new Lian-Li PC-70 case, and I was just wondering if I could manage it with the same tools used for LCD's.

Thanks, and sorry for being a complete moron :smile:

VFDs and LCDs can use the same software. The only difference will be contrast and brightness control. Other then that they share a common command set. I'm going to post some pics of my Lian Li case tomorrow :smile:

The difference in VFDs and LCDs is VFDs do not get affected by temperature. In cold weather LCDs slow down , this can be seen if you leave your cell phone in the car in winter (or freezer). VFDs will have the same speed at -20 and +20, so really good for out door use.
