Question Creative Labs AE-5 PLUS RGB lighting ?

[Christophe516]

I am being given this: Creative Labs AE-5 PLUS for my birthday. I don't have a case where you can see the inside. Does that mean, I won't be able to make use of the RGB lighting?

The RGB will operate regardless of a side panel but pelaes keep in mind that you will need Creative's app;

Sound Blaster Command app to manage the lighting on the sound card and any LED strip that's attached to it.

I already installed the Sound Blaster Command app. But I am asking about the case, since I don't have a case that you can see inside of.

Even if you can’t see the RGB, it’s still doing its thing — just some hidden aesthetics for your soul 😄
If you ever want to enjoy the lighting visually, you might consider a case with a side window down the line.

If I financially could get a case like that, I would. Maybe I will save up for it.

Years before Adaptec went under(they are listed on Wikipedia), I had this system:

Case: 13-bay Full-Tower
Mbd: ATX w/ 6 ISA, 1 PCI
RAM: 16/32MB
HDC: SCSI AHA-29320
HD (10)10MB
RAID: Yes
CD/DVD: CD-R/W
Monitor: RGB CRT
Kbd: 101-key
Mouse: 3-Button
