Back in the day, I knew what I would get from ASUS and their AURA tech. Pretty simple, just choose what you want and go. My LEDs did what I wanted, it was simple. But no… no they said. Instead we want you to download most of a gig of bullshit to do the same thing, but with extra fucking steps.

I’m pretty sure my light controlling software is now tracking me. I’m not sure if the pattern of my LEDs are watching me or not.

How the shit did we let this come to pass? Why do we let these monstrosities into our life?

I’m part of the problem, I know. I just want my lights to do what I tell them to.

    Asrock app is trash too. Takes ages to start up and the UI is edgy-looking, wannabe ROG garbage. You can only control the motherboard RGB from the BIOS, so you can’t avoid ditching it if you want everything off on your RAM, etc. and of course the Kingston sticks default to godawful pulsing rainbow eye-cancer. I miss evga so much.

      ASRock’s RGB is the worst of the worst, and even the best official RGB software is garbage. ASRock is many tiers of trash below them.
