Question regarding RGB lights.
Question regarding RGB lights.
Hello, I am very new to rgb lighting and i just built a computer and i also bought some rgb wall lights from walmart, they plug in with usb and i have them plugged into my computer. I am wanting to be able to control the lights with my computer instead of the remote that came with them. I am wanting to sync all of my lighting effects. Is this something that can only be done with name brand stuff or am i missing something. I have downloaded SignalRGB but it does not detect the lights. Any help here would be great.
I believe the USB is intended for power, or perhaps the lights have another source. The issue is that you can't adjust the RGB lights from the PC; you'd need LED strips with specific connectors. This also depends on whether your motherboard has an (A)RGB header for connecting the strips.
The USB is intended for power only, not any other source. I also just added a CPU water cooler to my daughter's computer today. It came with a plug matching what you showed. I connected it to the rainbow header on her MSI board, but neither ICUE nor SignalRGB detected it.
iCUE is exclusive to Corsair devices. SignalRGB is third-party software with known compatibility problems and no warranty. If you wish to manage the RGB on your Id-Cooling AIO, consider using MSI Mystic Light Sync. This tool works with MoBo RGB lights (if available) and also supports AIO systems. MSI Mystic Light Sync is now included in the MSI Center software package. You can download it here: https://www.msi.com/Landing/mystic-light...c/download. Currently, synchronizing RGB across different hardware remains challenging. The most practical solution is to use devices from the same ecosystem, such as Asus Aura, Corsair iCUE, or NZXT CAM. For instance, if you aim to control your AIO RGB via Corsair iCUE (assuming they already offer Corsair peripherals), a Corsair AIO with RGB would be necessary.
