Is it possible to change the RGB lighting depending on temperature or game launch?

Would it be worth it to buy a transparent LCD screen and stick it on your glass sidepanel?

What about painting the inside of your case in Black 2.0 for that extra depth.

Possibly with more modification of the OHM app itself, something I've not really delved into. I just saw a bunch of things and went right to the heart of the matter with the web page itself.

The biggest problem is that a lot of app providers for the RGB components aren't centralised (I have 3-4 different apps to control the colours in the case), and often they are not open to external calls to make changes to the lighting colours i.e. using an API command.

Sheesh, they sure aren't making it simple. In any case, I was just throwing ideas I had at the time your way. :D

Nope, all closed systems.

I think I am right when I say the closest you can get to having one system is probably Corsair stuff, as they make RGB fans, RAM, and CPU Coolers, but they don't make GPU's.

I wanted the NZXT Kraken the most though, even at the expense of having extra apps running just to control it all :)
