Aurora VS openrgb-rs

I used Aurora software in my previous build to sync my then Asus b250i motherboard with all the peripherals (Roccat and Razer) successfully but that project wasn’t updated since 2020. However recently I found a fork - https://github.com/Aurora-RGB/Aurora which supports everything except gigabyte motherboard and gpu.

If you want simplest light effects with smallest cpu usage try Aurora

I don’t think you need any special software for the cooler, CAM just handles the RGB and I think the display on the block. If you can live without that (OpenRGB can potentially handle the RGB, not sure about the display) then you should be able to get rid of it (assuming NZXT let you uninstall it without needing a reinstall, unlike Asus and Armory Crate…).

openrgb.org and get rid of Mystic lights

openrgb.org works on all 3 of my MSI boards, Razor KB and mouse too. Small and simple.

You can try SignalRGB or OpenRGB

If you've connected the ARGB Header to your Motherboard, you'll have to use some software like OpenRGB, but if not - try pressing the "Reset" button (located on the left-hand side of the Front Panel) which hopefully will switch between RGB modes.

First install OperRGB https://openrgb.org/

Controlling RGB devices on Linux has always been kinda finicky. Too much proprietary nonsense and Windows-only software. With so many vendors jumping on this open standard would it potentially open up way more devices to be controlled by one app on Linux? Would a project like OpenRGB be able to get this working? I'm not a developer, so apologies if this ultimately means nothing.

You could try OpenRGB and see if it detects and allows you to change your lights.

Do you have this ARGB cable connected to the motherboard? If yes, you can use OpenRGB to control it.
