MSIRGB VS openrgb-rs

There's an open-source alternative to the MSI RGB toolkit: https://github.com/ixjf/MSIRGB

Openrgb detects all my components except my motherboard, I was reading about the implementation of nagisa's msirgb and later found out that my motherboard isnt supported, but also tried ixjf/MSIRGB: Alternative to MSI Mystic Light for controlling motherboard LEDs, without the fixed 7 colour limitation. (github.com) which detects my motherboard but this is also a fork from nagisa's msirgb and it works, is it possible to get my motherboard supported somehow?

You can try https://github.com/ixjf/MSIRGB/releases instead of the MSI RGB software (don’t know if it still works)

Never used it myself but saw this mentioned some times: https://github.com/ixjf/MSIRGB

I have been having issues with *somewhat* random BSODs when plugging in/out USB devices like mouse/headset etc. I tried to install MSIRGB to get around having to use MSI's awful software to control my motherboard's LEDs and ever since this issue has been around. Has anyone had these issues in the past? Is there a specific file/location I should try and remove to fix this?

It's software limited (at least on my motherboard) because the RGB hardware supports custom colors through 3rd party programs. I use MSI RGB but it isn't being updated anymore so if you have a newer motherboard it probably won't work, check if yours is compatible by looking at the list available on the website

msiRGB too...you can download it from github

What's your motherboard? See if it's supported by MSIRGB.

Have you given MSIRGB a try? It claims to support your board: https://github.com/ixjf/MSIRGB

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.
