  Don't just make your PC shine, make it a work of art that friends will envy. With the GIGABYTE RGB Fusion mobile app users can watch as they control the lighting within their gaming PC. This gives users ease of access as they try and adjust colors and speeds for different modes, all this can be done away from the keyboard and monitor of their PC.
• Surround Lighting
  Now offering more LED customizations than ever, users can truly adapt their PC to represent their lifestyle. With full RGB support and a redesigned RGB Fusion application, the user has complete control over the LEDs which surround the motherboard.
• Supports RGBW & -UV Light Strips
  Independently Programmable Onboard Pin Header for RGBW/-UV LED Strips: Not bright enough? You can install standard 12V external RGB, RGBW or RGB/UV light strips on the RGBW pin header and control its color from the RGB Fusion software. Using a RGBW light strip with a dedicated white LED, users will experience brighter and more vibrant shades of colours.
  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 software that allows users to redefine the pin location for the R/G/B Signal.
• RGB/UV Colour: 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 Colour: RGBW light strips can produce a pure white colour instead of mixing R/G/B to produce an inaccurate white.
• Richer Colour: With dedicated white LEDs. light strips can produce a richer and brighter colour on the colour scale.
• RGB Calibration: Different light strips sometimes have different RGB pin definitions, RGB Fusion software can relocate each pin location for the best compatibility.
• RGB Fusion (Advanced mode) With the all new RGB Fusion software, users have access to different preset LED lighting configurations with choice of colors. You can even set the LEDs to synchronize with your favorite music or have them change colors to indicate the CPU temperature.
  For true lighting experts there is an Advanced Mode, which can be fully customized by individual area with its own effects and color transitions, along with specific duration and transition times.
  Once done, it’s simple to save and share your lighting profile with others.
