Blog:Is there an article on HiD RGB(LTQ) here?

Hi guys, I did a search for RGB here but it didn't turn anything up, I've read a lot of relevant and very informative articles here, so it just seems like there should be one about what is easily the most inane new facet of the video game industry, despite it being a topic regarding mainly computer gaming hardware peripherals and not video games themselves. However, I do see the sickening ubiquity of RGB lighting features on basically every variety of gaming hardware, as indicative of a more pervasive problem.

Just seeing how it is in advertising, it's as if they're endorsing RGB rainbow-style lighting as the main feature of every gaming keyboard out there; there's clearly something else going on with all this; I never use the RGB function on any of my hardware and become nauseated at the thought of doing so, and I'm sure that most people who are actually serious about video games and gaming agree with me. And so I strongly feel that this topic needs an article here, so that we can have a pertinent focal point on this subversive scourge of our beloved industry.

We can add our thoughts on this in the comment section, and I will summarise them below until we have enough content to put an article together.

Performance :
 * Unnecessarily uses electrical power.
 * Adds to mouse/keyboard etc. latency, due to the extra data signals being send back and forth from the computer to the hardware.
 * A large amount of internal RGB lighting (such as on some SSDs), can add excess heat to the inside of a computer.
 * RAM sticks with RGB lighting draw unnecessary voltage, which impedes their overclockability.
 * RGB lighting can often be very annoying and distracting, which detracts from gameplay performance by disrupting focus.

Marketing :
 * Many people would prefer to pay less for a keyboard or mouse etc., if they don't want the RGB lighting, just the actual functionality, and I don't think I've seen any companies offering non-RGB models of their gaming peripherals.
 * This is actually a bigger problem than it might seem, and is actually negatively effecting the ability of those companies, to market their products to broader price-ranges. So as it currently stands, RGB as a standard feature with no non-RGB versions of products, is a lose-lose situation in computer hardware for both manufacturers and consumers.

Aesthetics :
 * Many people find RGB lighting on computer hardware to be very gaudy, unnattractive and noobish.
 * Despite being often seen and even advertised as a 'gamer' feature, RGB lighting is not actually a 'gamer' aesthetic because it can impede performance (since a 'gamer aesthetic' would be one that does not impede performance in any way), but is instead a 'flamer' aesthetic...

Agenda :
 * Possible connection with 'progressiveness' in the video game industry, due to how prominently advertised the rainbow lighting effect is in promotional images and on box covers, which can be easily seen as symbolic of 'GBLTQ' rainbow motifs, that again can be linked to the scourge of 'SJW' infiltration in the video game industry, which was highlighted during 'Gamergate'.
