Grey

[Adsome2007]

I have corsair rgb fans and ram and a rgb gigabyte motherboard is there any way for me to set the lights to a silver if possible or grey color.

Essentially it would be off, as gray is not withing the RGB color spectrum.

Gray is simply all three base colors (R,G,B) at the same, non-maximum, intensity. So if you can control R,G,B individually you should be able to make it gray.

 

If you set R,G,B to 100% each, you should get white and if you dim that down to say 50% each you should get gray.

16 mill+ colors & you cant have grey.

There is no gray when it comes to light. You can lower the saturation and intensity, but not much else can be done.

Right... because monitors, which also work with light colors (r,g,b) are totally incapable of displaying gray...

That's not completely RGB though, that's the interaction between the LCD panel itself and the intensity of the blacklight with the RGB pixels to create a gray color. If you are just using RGB lights essentially it would be dimming the white light or approx gray as off would be black.

We're not talking about monitors. And even then, the monitor is taking a blend of RGB and reducing the intensity of those colors for darkness.

It's like brown, in the RGB space brown doesn't exist.

It's essentially the ''brightness'' of orange. So a dark orange will be what we interpret as brown in the RGB monitors, lights, etc. 

Grey would be much the same, a lower intensity white, which would be too dim to see anyways.

That's pretty much what I was talking about. Make R,G and B the same intensity and you get white. Lower its intensity and you get "gray" (or a darker white, if you will) until you approach zero intensity where it would be black.

ahh...

Okay thanks for all the help.
