Lights and fans upgrade help

silentwitness

hey i currently have the NZXT Hue+ which seems to be malfunctioning and causing my pc to loose power completely. I am looking to upgrade but cant decide what to get. I have a CoolerMaster Master case 5 pro case and an Asus ROG Crosshair VII Hero mobo with the stock Wraith RGB cooler. My current lighting and fan config is

 

3 x NZXT Aer Fans at front of the case

3 x normal non RGB Fans( 2 on top and 1 at rear)

1 x RGB  lighting strip Kit

 

To upgrade I am a little confused whether to go for NZXT hue2 (3fan kit + lighting strip at 140$) and sacrifice the Aura sync or should i get something like the Antec Prizm kit which would give me 3 RGB fans + 2 lighting strips for only 60$). Also planning to upgrade the RAM and get either the Kingston RGB or Corsair RGB. That decision would also depend on which lighting kit/fans i would get.

I personally have all corsair RGB myself and the customization is almost endless, I can link keyboard, mouse, rgb strips, fans (LL120's), memory in one software with many other features like fan speed control using commander pro. I think they look really good.

 

I run a custom lighting effect of color pulse layered with multiple white visor effects.

i was checking out the CORSAIR CL-9011109-WW Lighting Node PRO and the Corsair LL120 fans and just wanted to confirm what software you used to control the lights, i was reading reviews and it mentions "corsair Link" but for my keyboard and mousepad i am using Icue.
