If we’re building PCs here, i wanna hear your opinions on (A)RGB LEDs. 5V, 12V, single color, addressable. MFing Lights.
What’s your preferred amount? Just a few LED fans? Or some RGB RAM sticks? Maybe just on your CPU cooler? Or a single solitary LED strip?
Maybe you’re like me. Maybe you need more. Maybe your build isn’t complete unless everything is glowing and synced. LED strip, LED fans, CPU cooler, GPU, the works. Why can’t a PC be functional and fun to look at?
Or maybe you want no LEDs at all. Maybe you’re a Noctua fan. Maybe you cringe at the idea of PC components that light up more than absolutely necessary.
So let’s hear it. How much lighting is enough? Is there such a thing as enough, or too much for you?
How much lighting is enough?
Definitive answer: As much or as little as the person building the PC wants.
For me the correct answer is zero.
For someone else the correct answer is All The Lights!!!
Both (and everywhere in between) are correct.
It’s your PC you are building, so do what you want.
i’m a no rgb at all person, if it were easier i would even desolder the ones on my raspberry pi fan but it’s all a hunk of plastic
Zero. Zero RGB is enough.
I don’t need my bedroom lit up at night like an amusement park because the PC hardware makers think all gamers need Extryme Lighting.
Any lights is too many lights, they are pointless and obnoxious IMO. I fucking hate how my current laptop has one of those stupid fucking rgb backlit keyboards which lights up to full brightness when the computer goes into standby but isn’t closed.
The sooner manufacturers stop making this trash the better.
