Lian Li Strimer 8 Pin Review: RGB Comes to PCIe Cables

Yes, let's RGB EVERYTHING. RGB fans, RGB cases, RGB heatsinks, RGB memory, RGB power supplies and their cables, RGB graphics cards, RGB storage drives, RGB monitors and other peripherals... All that's left is to get AMD and Intel to work on RGB CPUS!


Such an eyesore this all is, but there's a market for it somewhere...
 


I think that market is children with no taste.
Decades ago, Korean companies at CES were showing gaudy, light-up boomboxes, which thankfully did not catch on here. Now PCs have the same look.

My PC is now an ugly, lit-up mess because the video card and RAM that suited my needs are RGB lit. My brother made fun of it when I brought it to his house to show his kids VR, and I had to tell him that that's just how the parts are now.
