Full unicorn vomit, or stealthed-out mean machine? I want to know how much RGB festoons your gaming PC, please and thank you
For my personal records, you understand.
Gaming PCs these days often come equipped with RGB lighting, a trend that seems to have been around for quite some time. The question is, do you embrace the RGB aesthetic, find it off-putting, or opt for a more muted approach? I'd appreciate it if you could take part in the poll below and let me know the level of RGB in your own setup.
Speaking for myself, I appreciate a bit of solid-color lighting to create a neon atmosphere during gaming sessions, but I'm not particularly fond of the full-on rainbow display. When testing RGB-lit peripherals, my initial glance is usually at the lighting settings in the software, as many of the models I evaluate come preset with eye-catching wave patterns.
One PC component that has remained constant for me, despite the colorful options available, is my Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 kit. Softly glowing in rainbow tones since day one three years ago, it provides a pleasant visual contrast amidst my predominantly red setup. While I've considered adjusting the settings, these modules have been a comforting presence in my desktop for quite some time, subtly enhancing the overall look.
As I gaze upon these modules nestled in my otherwise all-red rig, I can't help but wonder if I should tweak the color settings. However, their presence has become oddly comforting, adding a touch of visual interest to what could otherwise be a rather dull, monochromatic lighting scheme. Looking at the photos, I realize that even the topside of my graphics card contributes a bit of extra color to the overall aesthetic.
So, I pose the question to fellow PC gamers: Full RGB, reserved for the faint of heart, or something in between? Your vote in the poll is greatly appreciated.
