Hi folks, title essentially. I’m using Open Razer and Polychromatic on PopOS right now for my keyboard, but I have a few other peripherals that are also RGB. A corsair cooler, my EVGA card, and my Gigabyte mobo lighting. I was wondering if there’s a single pane I can organize them all with. I don’t have super high expectations, but maybe there’s something out there. Thanks!
I intentionally bought ducky for this reason. No software required. Then my mouse had some issues and found out there’s nothing that can be done, and the mouse wheel is just the shits so I went with xtrify. No complaints. Ducky keyboard and xtrify mouse, can set in many ways and they work great without the need of any jank app.
Worst case scenario, you could hook your LEDs to an Arduino running WLED instead of to the motherboard headers directly, then run something like Home Assistant, xLights, or Vixen to automate them or choreograph them to music. 🤪
Openrgb is what you want. It’s tricky to figure out though. It’s not just going to recognize the device and poof magic. You’ll have to fiddle with HOW it’s connected - through your rgb header, bios settings, separate controller etc. Once it’s recognized, you may have to play with the settings for how many lights it has etc.
When I first used it, it thought it didn’t do anything. Then I learned and got it to do everything.
I never could get OpenRGB to work on Windows (it’d crash as soon as I launched it and I couldn’t find a solution). I’ll try it when I switch to Linux later this year and see if it works better for me then.
Perfect! I’m a Linux guy, happy to fiddle and learn things!
Perhaps this would work…
I found out about OpenLinkHub recently and it works great with my Corsair AIO cooler that OpenRGB doesn’t support.
