What? The leds that go in the bulb sockets take 3W so the RGB ones going into the case probably take like 1.5 to 2W. RGB led strips seem to take 8W per meter. We’re talking about 5m of led strips and 25 individual lights and still not hitting 100W.

I don’t put RGB in my cases so I don’t know what the trend is. If it’s to turn your PC into a Christmas tree then I can understand 100W not being enough.

I have been meaning to put a service light[1] in my case. Just finding it a bit difficult to set it up in such way that it lights up the components properly, while not letting it directly flash my eyes.

I Motherboard RGB seems to be absolutely useless in that regard.


  1. to be turned on when I open the case and look at stuff inside ↩︎
