When using RGB/UV LED strips, users can give their systems a fluorescent glow with the use of UV reactive liquid, neon braided cables, and acrylic paint for a wicked-looking gaming PC.

No need to worry when choosing light strips as AORUS motherboards support a wide variety of RGBW/-UV light strips on the market thanks to the RGB Fusion 2.0 software that allows users to redefine the pin location for the R/G/B Signal.

RGBW Pin Header Support True White and RGB/UV LED Strips
RGB/UV Color
RGB/UV light strips can illuminate your PC with a fluorescent glow. With UV reactive cables, paint or liquid your PC can radiate with a luminous glow.
True White Color
RGBW light strips can produce a pure white color instead of mixing R/G/B to produce an inaccurate white.
Richer Color
With dedicated white LEDs, light strips can produce a richer and brighter color on the color scale.
RGB Calibration
Different light strips sometimes have different RGB pin definitions, RGB Fusion 2.0 software can relocate each pin location for the best compatibility.
