Fully Customizable LED Control

With Gamers valuing control over the aesthetics of their Gaming PC more and more, it was an easy choice for GIGABYTE to include Pin Headers for third-party LED strips. These Pin Headers can be found on both the X99 and Z170X-Ultra Gaming Motherboards, allowing the user to have full control of the system’s onboard LEDs with GIGABYTE’s Ambient LED Application. Not only can users control the color of the LEDs but also the lighting method such as beat mode, which illuminates to the sound of your music, or pulse mode that phases on and off imitating a heartbeat or breath.
