    And RGB PS is kinda pointless, isn't it? In most bottom mounted PS cases, the fan is pointing down and cannot be seen.

    90% of contemporary reality is pointless :)

    I mean if the case sits off the surface high enough, it could create underlighting.

    People do it to their cars all the time.

    However it would have to shine through the psu grill the case and often even the fan filter. To make matters worse it would be horibly of center.

    They could however just run fan up and in most cases its not even that bad.

    Ugh. Only basic 80+, and having separate 3.3/5V and 12V components mean they're just slapping LEDs on an ancient design.

    They have to get rid of the cheap crap clogging up Taiwanese factories somehow.

    What other components can we stick rgb's on?
    Monitors, usb drives, dvd drives, speakers, mouse pad, storage, anything else?

    'Gaming' Gloves, 'Gaming' Glasses, 'Gaming' Undies, and many more.

    RGB gaming chairs are already on the way also RGB Tables are available from Lian-Li.

    Your desk, chair, and mouse pad. Your headset. Your keyboard and mouse cables. If you're silly and using wireless (no real gamer will tolerate that extra latency, but there are lots of posers) then they can have RGB strobes that pretend to show the radio waves. Your SD cards will need lights, as will your phone. Then you'll want them on your car to make sure everybody knows you're a GAMER (tm). When you have kids, you'll implant RGB LEDs in their bones.

    The lighting is a nice to have, but hopefully they're high quality PSs. While I personally wouldn't but RGB units, it's going to be popular with those seeking the looks.

    They aren't. The specs indicate that these are build around a low efficiency and obsolete design.

    RGB lightning... that's something I'd love to see.
  • petteyg359 - Monday, July 31, 2017 - link

    You see it every time you see lightning already. Rods and cones.

    One thing that isn't spec'd - are these modular or not?
  • DanNeely - Sunday, July 30, 2017 - link

    Almost certainly not. It'd be advertised if they were; and the first picture shows a bundle of fixed cables coming out, but no modular connections.
  • WinterCharm - Saturday, July 29, 2017 - link

    Why.
  • petteyg359 - Monday, July 31, 2017 - link

    Because adding "RGB" to old trash products is easy and cheap and idiot GAMER(tm) morons will buy them purely for the lights.
