 What's up internet? Bibili ka ng RGB para sa computer mo, parang ganyan ito. And gusto mo malaman, gusto mo siguraduhin na compatible yung RGB na yun dun sa system mo. Usually sa series na ito, kinukuhan natin step by step. Lahat ng basic parts ng computer, and then minamatch natin yun. So kung bibili ka nung X, kailang mo tutukan yung motherboard, yung casing, yung PSU, yung iba hindi, parang ganyan ito. Yan yung usual setup ng series na ito, pero to be honest, nakakalito yung RGB. Parang hindi makatulong kung dumahan tayo dun sa usual list natin. Wala pa isang minuto, finished. May legit working CDK ka na sa software na pinili mo.

So parang mas malinao, dadanan lang muna tayo kung anong RGB, and anong different kinds of RGB. Kasi sa totoo lang, sobrang nakakalito ang RGB na ito. We build a lot of rigs here at hardware sugar, and we're always very careful dun sa RGB. Kasi kung magkamali ka, either hindi mo magamit lahat nung functions nung RGB, or cool lang yung hardware mo para matpatakbol lahat nung RGB na binilini customer, or yung software na ginagamit nung customer para makustomize yung RGB. Hindi tugma, or hindi compatible dun sa iba pang mga components na RGB rin. So it's really very confusing. To be honest, kasi iba ibang manufacturers, iba ibang standards. Just to boil it down to its very basics. Number one, ano ba tung RGB na ito? RGB means red, green, and blue. Kung sinama mo yung tatlong colors na yan, the different variations of red, green, and blue, you can form any color. So yung yung ibig sabihin ng RGB na it doesn't mean kung RGB, red, green, or blue lang yung ma-didisplay nung component na yun. It can really display any color. Yan yung kagandahan ni RGB. I had a customer before who asked me, ano bang mga kulay niyan? Sa sabi ko RGB, sa sabi niya ilang kulay ma-didisplay niyan. So na pa-research pa ako, you know, it's something like in the hundreds, or I forget millions or something, pero there are so many variations na magawa mo. Basically it's any color. Yun na lang yun. RGB means any color to be, you know, very blunt about it. You can customize it, you can set it to different colors, to different settings. So yun yung RGB. Pero may ibat-ibang uri nung RGB. Number one is the older form of RGB na tawag lang sa kanya RGB. Tapos may mas bagong version of RGB, tawag sa kanya ARGB, or addressable RGB, or digital RGB. So parayaw lang yun lahat. Addressable RGB, ARGB, digital RGB, parayaw lang yan. Then dun sa older version, RGB or non-digital RGB, parayaw lang yan. What's the difference? Yung RGB, gumagami siya nung 12 volt and 4 pin RGB header. We'll talk about why that's important in a bit. Yung ARGB gumagami siya nung 5 volt or 3 pin RGB header. But for the consumer, bottom line is mas maganda yung ARGB. In terms of the color and in terms of the kinds of lighting that you can have. Mas maganda yung ARGB, bakit? Kasi siya ARGB, yes, nakokontrol mo siya. Pero lahat nung ilaw na kaseries yun. And you can only control it per series. Hindi per light. What do I mean? Let's say you have an RGB product and it has 5 LEDs. Kung RGB yun, nakokontrol mo lang lahat sila at the same time. You can only control it as a unit, as a series. So kung yung 5 na yun, red lang yun lahat. Blue lang yun lahat, yellow lang yun lahat. Yes, you can change the colors and they can change rapidly. Let's say, pwede may flash red, green, yellow, may epilepsy ka din. Blue, orange, purple, whatever. Pwede may flash yun, sunod-sunod. Yung problema, hindi mo kaya na each individual LED, mapalitan yung kulay at the same time. Isang kulay lang talaga yun, old at the same time. So if it's red, it's gonna be red all the time. Blue, et cetera, lahat yun all at the same time. Yung maganda sa ARGB, hindi siya series. So let's say you have the same product, 5 LEDs, pero ARGB siya. Hindi ka stuck dun na one color all at the same time. At the same time, pwede mo palitan yung lima na yun to different colors. So the first one can be red, the second one can be blue, the third can be green, the fourth can be yellow, the fifth can be violet, and then papalit-palit yan. So because you have such granular control or kasi sobrang minute nung control mo dun sa RGB product, isipin mo individual LED na ko-control mo. Mas maganda talaga, mas vivid, mas dynamic, yung mga lighting setups nung ARGB. So there are really some lighting effects na kaya ni ARGB na hindi kaya ni ARGB. To make things more confusing, may ibang mga high-end brands like Corsair or NZXT, yung tawag lang nila sa mga RGB product sila ARGB, pero usually ARGB yun, or meaning mas maganda yung lighting effects na kaya nila. Usually kasi yung mga yun, ginagamit nila yung 5V din sila. Kung 5V yung ARGB, that is automatically ARGB. Even though it's not classified as ARGB or it's not classified as digital RGB. Okay, let's say, oh nga, maganda yung RGB, sold ka na, gusto mo bumili, what do you need to know? Para ma-control mo, or para ma-customize mo yung RGB lighting, maset mo to breathing, malagay mo red and then green to blue, whatever, you need to have software control. Lahat yun nakasalalay sa motherboard. Kung bibili ka nung RGB, you need to make sure na yung motherboard mo may 12V 4pin RGB header. Kung bibili ka nung ARGB, siguraduhin mo na yung motherboard mo may 5V 3pin ARGB header. And kung bibili ka nung mga high-end RGB, like for NZXT or Corsair, yung mga yun, they don't use the motherboard headers. They usually have their own controllers which plug into the internal USB slot of the motherboard. Sasaksak mo lahat na mga RGB products nila dun sa controller and then in turn yung controller na yun sasaksak mo dun sa internal USB slot nung motherboard mo. So depending on what kind of RGB products you're going to get, make sure you have the proper headers to control them. Madalas na mangyari na bibili si customer ng RGB kasi na willy sa mga magagadang ilaw, pero pagbalik sa bahay, i-install nya tapos na realize niya poo siya medyo complicated pala to ha, san ko isasaksak to, wala pala kung RGB header sa motherboard. We did do an old video before where you can have RGB in an old system pero medyo mahirap siyang gawin. Ngayon yung mga bagong boards maganda kasi they both have RGB headers and ARGB headers mas naging uso yun ngayon. I even seen some boards like from MSI na may special Corsair headers nila na para talaga dun sa mga RGB products ng Corsair, although those are very uncommon, mahirap makahanap nun. Usually you plug those into the controller of Corsair. But bottom line for beginners, if you want to use software control para palitan yung mga RGB settings mo, you need to make sure na yung motherboard mo compatible. Yun nga kung may RGB header, kung RGB binilim mo, ARGB header if your products are ARGB, and if your items are using a controller kung may internal USB slot ba yung motherboard. Now I've talked about software control and usually this is the recommended way how to control RGB kasi mas maganda talaga yung effects na makulukha mo and mas madali yung control mo kasi na papalitan mo dun sa desktop. However, there are some RGB products that come with physical controller. So usually parang, paminsan may remote control, paminsan may wired control, na kailan mo pang hanapin sa log nung case mo and then papalitan mo yung lighting. Sometimes you can thread it out, parang linalabas mo siya, pero hindi makadating nang yun sa setup. There are some systems that allow you to wire the RGB to the reset button of the case. Yun, magandang solution yun. There are some cases like this one, the MSI vampiric. May RGB button talaga yung case para mapalitan mo lang yung case lighting dun sa via dot button. But generally hindi recommended yung physical controllers for RGB kasi it's not a very neat solution if it's a physical controller and pangalawa yun nga, mas may control ka talaga, mas gamay mo yung RGB mo kung nagagamit mo yung software control. It's an option and if you want a physical controller then that's your choice. Although generally the trend now is na software control talaga para sa RGB. Sige, dan mo na tayo sa listahan natin yung usual list natin and sabihin natin kung ano bang may RGB fide or ano ba yung mga products na may RGB usually. Yung CPU, wala ng RGB yan. Yung CPU cooler, yes, pa minsan may RGB. Yung motherboard, pa minsan? Yes, may RGB na rin yung motherboard. GPU, yes, pa minsan meron. Case, yes, meron. Storage, pa minsan yung SSDs may nakakaitan ako na may RGB. Yung RAM, yes, may RGB na rin. PSU, yes, may PSU na rin with RGB, notably from thermal take. And actually I think parang yun ay lahat ng products, parang lahat nung posibleng mapasok mo sa case aside from the CPU, na hindi mo naman talaga nakakaita kasi natatak pa ng CPU cooler, na RGB fine na, like may RGB version. There even RGB cable coms, or RGB underglow. So you put them at the bottom of your case to give it like that. May parang lighting that spilling out from the bottom of the case. I've seen monitors with RGB. So basically anything nowadays that you can stick into your case may RGB version. Pero yung pinaka-comon na RGB is yung fans. Sometimes they come with the case, the case fans already have RGB. More often you buy them separately. So Corsair, NZXT, Deep Cool, Aid Cooling. Adami mga brands na may mga case fans na RGB. Usually like even for the AIOs, the all-in-one water cooling systems, paminsan yung CPU blocks, yung mukang scuba regulator na dinidikit dun sa CPU. Depending on the AIOs, kahit yung CPU block walang RGB. Pero yung nagbibigay ng RGB, yung fans na naka-lagay dun sa radiator. So the most common item that has RGB are case fans. Kung bibili ka ng RGB or gusto mo na may RGB yung setup mo, check mo lang yung case mo how many extra fans it can take because that controls how many RGB fans you can have in your case. And to be honest, sobrang basic palang yung napugusapan natin on how to control RGB. Sobrang nakakalito siya and you really need to do your own research or go to your trusted shop like hardware sugar na, ay gusto ko na RGB. Kasi yung trachey dun sa RGB, you need to know if you have enough headers to control it and you also need to know if you have enough power. Like you want seven fans. Ma-C66 ba lahat ng seven fans na yung dun sa isang RGB header. Usually naka-dacy chain so you don't need to do that. They do run out of power. Yung maganda sa RGB kumpara sa ARGB, since 12 volts sya, you can have more RGB products daisy chain together tas nakadikit lang dun sa, nakasaksak lang dun sa isang RGB header. You do run out of power more often with a 5 volt ARGB setup. And then so you need to figure out now where you're going to get the extra power for the rest of your RGB na hindi umiilaw. So medyo complicated talaga siya. Pero yung pinakabasik yung nga yung headers mo. RGB is 12 volt 4 pin. Make sure your motherboard has that if that's what you're buying. ARGB is 5 volt 3 pin. Make sure your motherboard has that if you're buying. And if you're buying medyo high end like Corsair, NDXT, make sure your motherboard has an internal USB slot to accommodate those. Actually just to illustrate how complicated it gets, bibili ka lang ng all NDXT setup H510 Elite na may kasama ng smart device B2. Yung H510 Elite may kasama ng dalawang RGB fans dun sa harap. Tapos bibili ka pa nung AIO cooler na NDXT. Isigin mo ok na yun kasi may smart device naman. Nakasama na dun sa case, NDXT naman lahat. Pero yung smart device na yun, sakto lang siya dun sa mga kasama na fans. Tapos yung NDXT kailangan pa niya nung internal USB header. So the smart device eats up one header and then the NDXT AIO eats up another header. And then depended sa motherboard mo, usually isa lang yung available internal USB header. Medyo nakakapanik sa gitanong build na poochakala ko tama na ito, NDXT naman lahat. Tapos pala kulang pa nung header. What we usually do is you can actually buy an NDXT internal USB header. Yun sobrang useful nun. Even for products that aren't from NDXT compatible naman siya. So we use those for the Corsair builds and other builds like that. You think na RGB lang siya, madali lang siya, pero actually yun talagin pampasakit sa ulo sa mga builds. And you need to, you end up putting a lot of stuff in just to support the RGB. Yun nga yung additional internal USB headers, fan hubs to power the fans and other things like that. So be sure to plan your build kung papasok ka nung RGB. Last na lang, siguro more knowledge. Parang trivial lang. Kung napansin mo online, maraming nagsusabi na ayaw nila sa RGB. Why do people hate RGB so much? Ang ganda naman tingnan, di ba? Parang magata tingnan, pwede may control. A lot of people, at least online, do say that they don't like RGB, RGB puke yun tawag. Naghahanap sila ng mga stealth builds. Yung stealth builds basically all black or something anti-RGB builds. For me personally, RGB. I think it looks pretty. Yung iba, ayaw lang sumali sa uso kasi yung uso-uso yung RGB ngayon. And yung iba naman, nag-alit sa RGB, which I think is a position that makes more sense, is na, andami damay mong ginagasto sa RGB, pero hindi naman yung nagdadagdag sa performance. All of that money, and you can spend a lot on RGB. All of that money does not add one mega-hurt, does not decrease one second less of your waiting times ang unloading times. Everything you spend on RGB is just money down the drain for performance yung tinitingnan mo. So yes, magandang RGB, magarbutingnan. Baka kaya, agalit yung ibang tao sa RGB kasi yung the purists, yung talagang bang for your back performance-wise, wala talagang nagdadagdag yung RGB sa performance. And perhaps it's why some people online are very quick to comment na, oh, RGB puke and tinaman utong RGB na to, parang ganyan, et cetera. Although there are some very tasteful builds na naka RGB, na naka lagay lang to all-white or white and blue, nag-alternate sila. So, hindi naman ibig sabihin na RGB pangit ka-agad. And of course, dependin yung sa user, diba, that's your computer, that's your personal computer. So, ikaw na bahala kung ano gusto mo, kung gusto mo, parang disco yung computer mo, siyung naman magsasabi sa iyo na maliyon, diba, computer mo yun e. Pero yung na-inis talaga ako and maraming na kakoment nito actually sa YouTube videos. Does RGB add heat? Yes, it does, pero sobrang kontin-konti lang that you shouldn't even worry about it. It's such a miniscule amount, sobrang liit lang nun. Yung linalagay nung yung nadadagdag na init sa RGB, na you shouldn't even really worry about it. Anything that generates light also produces heat. Pamitsan di mo, maraman, hawakan mo, parang malamig naman, but there is a miniscule heat generation there. And ganun sa mga LEDs nung RGB. Yes, it produces light and so, therefore, it produces heat. Pero yung na sobrang-sobrang konti lang nung heat na yun. Isipin mo, kumuha ka nung baso nung tubig, tinapon mo sa dagat. Nag-bagdagan ba yung tubig sa dagat? Yes. Maypaki ba yung mga isda sa dagat? Na-apekto ba yung dagat? Tumas ba yung water levels nung dagat? Yes to all of those things, but it doesn't matter. The fish will continue to swim. The sea water level rose incrementally. Sobrang liit lang. That it doesn't matter to the entire ecosystem. Ganun yung heat nung sa RGB. Yes, yung RGB nung heat and it produces heat. Pero in the greater scheme of things, sobrang liit lang nung that it doesn't matter to your case temperatures. Again, yung analogy ko, kumuha ka nung baso nung tubig, tinapon mo sa dagat. Yes, nag-bagdagan yung tubig sa dagat. But does that affect the sea in any perceptible, measurable, qualitative way? It does not. So kahit naka-read yung RGB mo, for all intents and purposes, hindi umihinit yung system mo, kahit naka 10 case fans ka, lahat RGB, RGB lahat. Yes, on a very scientific, objective level, temperatures do go up. But for performance wise, trying to keep your system as cool as possible, walang effect yung RGB dun sa system temperatures mo. So I don't actually get the whole bandwagon. Maraming galit sa RGB, maraming naman may gusto sa RGB. Here at Hardware Sugar, we really don't care what your position is.
