Just noticed on a few pictures Corsair show the 780T's reset button is illuminated yet on mine it isn't.


Here is the OCUK product picture and also what mine looks like i.e reset button is not illuminated -

was going to ask if you plugged in both the Molex and the Sata mate. Have you tried wiggling a few cables? Maye the LED lights up from the motherboard rest header, have you got that connected correctly, just checking mine now. Justa stab in the dark mate, wouldnt think it would matter but you never know

It appears that the reset button doesn't actually light up, Just had a look through Corsairs official page, The other pic must be pre-production.

ahhh.. does your fan speed emblem light up? my 3 speeds around the button do, but not the actual fan picture on the button. Wondering if thats the same as the reset button not lighting up.

That's normal, I just heard back from someone at Corsair, The only things that don't light up are the fan speed emblem and the reset button, Everything else should be either red or white :)
 
ok cool..any idea why that has been changed or why they showed the reset button and fan speed button lit up in the Corsair images? Doesnt bother me in the slightest, doesnt change the fact that this case is insanely beautiful, just my curious side.

From what I can tell it's just down to last minute design changes, Too many lights wouldn't look that good.
