One of the biggest complaints about RGB is the software ecosystem surrounding it. Every manufacturer has their own app, their own brand, their own style. If you want to mix and match devices, you end up with a ton of conflicting, functionally identical apps competing for your background resources. On top of that, these apps are proprietary and Windows-only. Some even require online accounts. What if there was a way to control all of your RGB devices from a single app, on both Windows and Linux, without any nonsense? That is what OpenRGB sets out to achieve. One app to rule them all.

Control RGB without wasting system resources
OpenRGB keeps it simple with a lightweight user interface that doesn't waste background resources with excessive custom images and styles. It is light on both RAM and CPU usage, so your system can continue to shine without cutting into your gaming or productivity performance.
Control RGB from a single app
If you have RGB devices from many different manufacturers, you will likely have many different programs installed to control all of your devices. These programs do not sync with each other, and they all compete for your system resources. OpenRGB aims to replace every single piece of proprietary RGB software with one lightweight app.
Contribute your RGB devices
OpenRGB is free and open source software under the GNU General Public License version 2. This means anyone is free to view and modify the code. If you know C++, you can add your own device with our flexible RGB hardware abstraction layer. Being open source means more devices are constantly being added!
Control RGB on Windows, Linux, and MacOS
OpenRGB runs on Windows, Linux and MacOS. No longer is RGB control a Windows-exclusive feature! OpenRGB has been tested on X86, X86_64, ARM32, and ARM64 processors including ARM mini-PCs such as the Raspberry Pi.
