So I recently built my first personal rig, and I am going the extra mile to fully RGB-fy my setup, but I'm curious to know what the best RGB software is, since I've found that running 4 separate pieces of software for RGB gets cumbersome and disorganized sometimes.
The main ones I've heard about are Open RGB, Signal RGB, and JackNet RGB Sync, but there are probably others. Which one is the best?

Open and Jacknet don't even see my GTX 1070, and Signal sees it, thinks it's working, but just is unable to actually control it.
Latest MSI Center update started an infuriating glitch where every single time I unplug a device from USB, I will get an "LEDKeeper2 has stopped working" error message twice in a row and will have to exit out twice in a row before it shuts up.
But MSI Center is the only one actually capable of controlling the RGB lights; I'm seriously considering downgrading my BIOS back to a version where I could just disable the RGB at the BIOS level, which I know is a terrible idea.
and yes I absolutely completely 100% purged MSI Center before trying the other 3.
Hey everyone.
I've been seeing (and testing) everything related to the new SignalRGB app and, though it's certainly a very, very powerful software with a lot of potential, it doesn't really do what RGBsync used to do so wonderfully - copy whatever a central software like iCUE is doing and apply it to the rest of RGB peripherals. That was what made RGBsync perfect, it wasn't overly complicated, quite easy indeed, and did exactly what it was supposed to straight-forwardly.
On the other hand, I find Signal to be confusing to use and set (which I'm sure will be polished, it's not a jab) and, above all, just way too powerful, which is ironically a problem. It takes over every existing RGB device's controls (for example, I have a HyperX FPS RGB keyboard which wasn't even synced to iCUE and, though it's great that Signal can recognize it, it immediately overwrote all 3 existing profiles on the boards' memory, and trying to manually create themes with Signal is an absolute pain compared to HyperX's Ngenuity software, unless I use one of the pre-existing ones, which have way too much stuff happening at once for my liking).
Anyways, the crux of the question is - I read on Signal's release post that Jack is a member of the dev team. I know he'd been working on a new version of RGBSync after their 1.8 version broke everything (sad...) - has this been scrapped in favor of Signal's release? Will there not be any more updates to RGBSync, at least to restore the beautiful functionality it once had? It was such a marvelous program, like no other on the net, really...
