I don’t often find myself wondering what to write when it comes to hardware. There is usually so much to cover that the words just flow, but the issue here is not that I don’t know what to type. It’s because I have already written it. In all honesty, I

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. I love RGB! So much so that I’d been trying to teach myself to program Arduino boards and create my own RGB decorations, and it’ll come as no surprise that my PC is full of pretty colours. The ROCCAT Kone XP
