MSI launches a standard for RGB LED lighting

MSI launches a standard for RGB LED lighting

MSI has announced the Mystic Light standard for RGB LED lighting usable on motherboards, graphics cards and LED strips inside your PC as well as RGB controllable keyboards and mice. With the help of specific motherboards you can control the RGB lights with Windows software or an APP.

This actually already is present in the currently used MSI Gaming APP on the X99A Godlike Gaming motherboards (our primary motherboard for graphics card testing). Basically it allows you to control RGB functionality for mice, keyboards, case-fans, RAM, LED strips and motherboards. 
  

You can do some pretty cool stuff with  MSI's Mystic Light - example video above

According to MSI you can use RGB LED strips with a specific header. MSI closely collaborated with pioneering brands such as Corsair, Silverstone, Cooler Master and many others to make sure their RGB featured products work flawlessly on the latest MSI GAMING motherboards.

"We at Phanteks are happy to announce that our water-cooling products and cases with RGB lighting are now compatible and certified with MSI Mystic Light. We are excited to have worked with MSI to bring Mystic Light ready products from Phanteks to the market."
-Ryan, Marketing Director of Phanteks.

CERTIFIED MYSTIC LIGHT SYNC PRODUCTS

  • Corsair Strafe RGB Gaming Keyboard
  • Corsair Scimitar RGB Gaming Mouse

  • SilverStone PM01 Chassis
  • Geil DDR4 EVO X Memory

MSI's Mystic Light Extension pin-header provides an intuitive way to control additional RGB strips added to a system, without needing a separate RGB controller. By simply connecting any 12V RGB LED strip to the 4-pin Mystic Light Extension RGB-strip header gamers can sync colors to any style they choose.

haha true.

Judging from the fact that a Corsair Strafe is included I assume my Corsair K70 LUX will also be included at some point. If this would work out it'd would really influence my next build to have all rgb nonsense work in harmony.

However, Corsair's Utility Engine (which controls my keyboards lightning) is highly advanced, and does a tremendous amount of stuff I've set it up to do. I have a feeling the Mystic tool will not be making use of Corsair's software and also not feature the same amount of depth that the Corsair community has given to the CUE. I wonder if at some point, I could have the CUE controls my other rgb components instead, I'd prefer that.
