So I have an i5 8600k and 1060 6GB build that I put together about a year ago and this Christmas when I clean It I also want to install some RGB goodies to spice it up a bit. I would love to have a RGB controller that could connect to a minimum of 6 RGB fans and one light strip, and 6 RGB fans. I already have the light strips but the fans and controller would have to be RGB Fusion compatible as I have a GIGABYTE Z370P D3 and I want to put it's RGB capabilities to use. Does anyone have any suggestions towards what I should get? I would prefer if the whole package was under $100 USD.

I suggest you check my guide in my signature below. For practicality reasons, I usually do not recommend using motherboard RGB-software other than ASUS Aura, instead I recommend people to get into an RGB eco-system of their choice in order to centralize lighting and Fan control as best as possible.

Feel free to comment on my post if you have any questions!

$100 for rgb fans and controller won't buy you much. Better off just buying good non rgb fans and some LED's 

 

I prefer Corsair. It's the best rgb around hand down. And the fans are great. But a 3 pack will put you over budget. Your at about $280 for 6 fans and a Corsair commander. 

 

Also ditch the rgb fusion. It sucks and is the worst software for rgb.  You don't have close to the control as others have and it's buggy. When I ran my aorus I just set the rgb for the mobo in bios and used the Corsair ique for my fans and what not. 

 

 

 

You get what you pay for.  Just want lights with some crap fans. Order away. Want something good. Get Corsair LL120's with a Corsair commander.  The Gigabyte rgb software will gimp anything you try to use because of how limited it is and you will wish you saved and spent a few bucks more for the corsiar so you can do some nice effects
