We hope you enjoy this guide and have fun lighting up your PC! Corsair iCUEĬorsair iCUE cases have been the epitome of cool RGB lighting these last few years, and none more so than the Corsair iCUE 220T RGB Airflow case, which has a real focus on aesthetic and cooling. These are usually included in any profile downloads, but if they are not, you can start with the case profile and create any extra lighting options for your RGB MnK! You will get full control of the RGB lighting for your components, but you'll also find that Corsair, Gigabyte, MSI and others also include many options for their matched peripherals such as keyboard and mouse. Along with the RGB profiles, themes and instructions, we have included links to some of the most popular RGB cases out there, so if it is time to upgrade your case, these are definitely worth looking at. This will save you a lot of time, but also give you a starting point if you want to tweak and customise the lighting setup and sequencing.
The majority of brands below have RGB themes which you can download, rather than set everything up manually. If your motherboard does not have many open sockets on the ARGB/RGB header, you can always upgrade to an RGB controller such as the XSPC 8 Way 3 pin 5V Addressable RGB Splitter HUB (below), which allows you to power 8x 5V addressable RGB products at once, yet you will only be taking up one RGB header on your motherboard. If you have an RGB CPU cooler or AiO liquid cooling system, they will need to be plugged into the header, and full instructions are always supplied. RGB memory uses System Management Bus (SMBus) for communication and customisation, and simply requires BIOS support on the motherboard.
For example, your RGM memory will not need to hook anything up to the motherboard, other than slotting in your memory modules as usual.
Some components are controlled without the need to plug in any fiddly plugs. Motherboard software such as Gigabyte RGB Fusion, ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light and Corsair iCUE are all very well-known, and will work with RAM, RGB LED strip-lights, fan case RGB lighting and CPU cooler RGB lighting amongst others.
The 'A' in ARGB stands for Addressable, and that means you'll be able to control more elements in your RGB setup. Ideally you will need a motherboard or case that supports ARGB. For those of us with generic RGB lighting and ARGB capable motherboards, we've included a short guide for festive Christmas lighting, too! If you use Corsair, ASUS or MSI RGB software, this process is simple enough, and there's even light themes you can download. Once you've finished with your festive tree and house decorations there's only one thing left to light up this Christmas - your RGB PC.
