Hello,

I currently have the Corsair Crystal 460X (I love it BTW) and want some extra RGB to spice things up. I was considering the HUE+ from NZXT, but after spending an obscene amount of money on my corsair Crystal 460X plus two extra RGB fans (total of 5 Corsair SP120 RGB) I don't feel like spending 60 more dollars. is there a cheaper alternative to HUE+ that is software controlled and lights up a big area?

If I'm wrong, please point it out. I'm always learning & I won't bite.

For software control the HUE+ would be the the only ones currently since they are individually controllable LED's, the only other ones really would be the Corsair Link's RGB LED's.

Save some money and get HUE+ when you can.

I got it, and it's awesome!

 

Except software can be a littly buggy from time to time.

Not to be self promotional but if you don't mind some DIY:

Otherwise, I would suggest you get some cheap RGB strips off ebay with the controller included. Cheers
