Linux RGB-Control Compatability
by Arct1c_f0x from LinuxQuestions.org on (#52Z0D)
A little background info:
I'm currently building a new desktop. I'll include a parts list below for the hell of it but what i'm particularly interested in is RGB lighting for my new desktop as I bought the Corair iCUE 465x with RGB fans and a tempered glass sidepanel and I want to have some nice RGB lighting inside.
My main question is this:
If I buy RAM, a motherboard, a coolant radiator, more fans, and all these components have RGB displays will there be some sort of open source software from somewhere like github with which I can control the lighting? Another question I have is will these RGB lights light up and function in some way or another as soon as I turn on the desktop for the first time after I have fully constructed it?
Currently the parts I have bought
Case - Corsair iCUE 465x
PSU - Corsair CX750M
Motherboard - Asus ROG STRIX -f
CPU - AMD Ryzen 3600x
GPU - TBD
RAM - TBD
Radiator - TBD
Additional fans - TBD
Thanks and if you guys have any tips with regard to RAM modules or other hardware pieces with RGB that are readily supported for linux that would be great
