How many GGG LEDs can I wire together when connected to the PC's 5V power?

Well, a simple answer for you.

I have about 51 hooked up through 2 ledwiz's.  All the power comes off a single 5V wire from the computer power supply.  It can probably handle many more since those power supplies are designed to run hdd's and dvd drives, bigger current draws.

Are you having any issues with controlling the various leds with two ledwiz's? I was looking to do the same and my project would require two ledwiz'a but a disclaimer on ggg's website seems to indicate that there are some issues with various front ends when using more than one.


Also can you post a pic on how you connected them to your ps?
