I have been trying to figure out if i should get a better controller than the onboard controller on my ASRock motherboard.

The only problem is that it doesn’t seem to support enough LEDs (or more than 5V/3A which is cutting it close) or direct mode.

I have been looking at the Razer Controller but the supported devices page and old Reddit posts seem to be torn on how good the support is in OpenRGB.

I mostly just need to get a working direct control since the direct control mode currently makes my ASRock motherboard unbootable (temporarily).

Any suggestions are welcome :)

    I know this is late for OP but in case anyone else finds this question and is looking, the zalman zsync works perfectly for me using openrgb and when I bought it, was the cheapest option by far. The software is dogshit and I’d never recommend it for someone who wasn’t using openrgb, but as long as you don’t wanna use their proprietary trash it’s a good device.

      Great suggestion as well, didn’t know about this one. Doesn’t seem to be easy to get in Europe tho :/
