We need more funding for RGB lit components for our programmers since this will make them better programmers
-
I am able to get components with unwanted lighting all over the place, but none where lighting is desirable.
- Didn't ask for lighting in my fans, got them.
- Didn't ask for lighting on my motherboard, got it.
- Didn't ask to a blinding light in the power indicator of my monitor, which is brighter than the screen itself. Had to tape it up.
- Took a real while to find a cabinet without glass/acrylic stuff, because that's all people sell nowadays.
- Asked for a good backlit keyboard for a reasonable price. I had to make cutouts out of glow-in-the-dark stickers.
- RGB everywhere by default, but getting even a single coloured backlight on a keyboard ramps up the price like anything.
-
Some people use the RGB to indicate system loads by colour, so they can have a visual indicator for when a long process finishes
-
That's a nice way to use it.
Not for me though, since I prefer audio cues for those things.I use the RGB on my gaming mouse to help find it in the dark, but that's all. Since it's usually too bright, all 3 RGB values are kept under 10 (out of 255).
As for the keyboard, I am mostly fine with a single colour LED. RGB would be considered a nice to have for seasonally changing colours. I may find different zone based colours useful, but I need to find a good enough keyboard first.
