I need RGB help

Hey everyone, I’m building in an NZXT H6 Flow case with a Kraken Elite 360 AIO and I’m trying to figure out the best way to handle RGB without running into software conflicts.

My current situation:

Case: NZXT H6 Flow (RGB case)

AIO: NZXT Kraken Elite 360 (RGB + LCD)

Motherboard: Gigabyte AORUS Elite AX

RAM: Corsair 32gb DDR5 RGB (Vengeance RGB)=

Planning bottom fans: NZXT F280 RGB Core (2x140mm in one frame)

Possibly using SignalRGB to sync everything

My confusion:

SignalRGB doesn’t seem to “support my case” (not sure if that even matters)

I’m not sure if I should use SignalRGB, NZXT CAM, or motherboard software

I want all RGB (RAM + fans + motherboard lighting) synced if possible

I also want to avoid software conflicts or stuff constantly overriding each other

Questions:

  1. Do I even need SignalRGB for this setup, or should I just stick to CAM + motherboard software?
  2. Will Corsair RAM + NZXT fans/AIO actually sync properly in SignalRGB?
  3. Is there a “best practice” software setup for mixed RGB ecosystems like this?
  4. Would I need any RGB controller for the bottom fans, or can I just use the motherboard headers?
  5. Should I just buy an RGB controller instead to simplify everything?

Any advice from people who’ve done mixed-brand RGB builds would be really appreciated. I’m trying to keep it clean and simple without 3 different RGB apps fighting each other.
