[SOLVED] Need recommendation on a budget rgb motherboard.

[froggy8]

hi guys

I will be getting a new case for a pc I have recently got as I wanted a High airflow, the case I have chosen is the phantek enthoo pro m special addition with a large side glass panel and 2 massive fans on the front. i thought since this has the glass, i could do some lighting for the inside to show it off but my motherboard (asrock z87 xtreme 4) isnt rgb compatible,

i would like to pick your brain on which one i should get, a low budget one if possible, only to help me put the rgb fans in the case and controlling the light sequence.

many thanks

You're wanting to replace your mobo+CPU+RAM in order to get RGB?

Why not just buy an RGB controller/hub?

i did think about that but if motherboard is cheap enough then i thought maybe i could change motherboard and use my existing components

Well, the RGB craze came about after the 80 series chipset. So I doubt you're going to find a drop-in replacement.

Again, are you planning on a full-on CPU+mobo+RAM upgrade here? Or just buying an RGB controller hub?
