Review on Phanteks PH DRGB_SKT Digital Starter Controller by Stacey Woodard

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Bought 2 but arrived 1 defective and weak magnet

This product is required for better quality control. I bought two and one came with a defective controller. I swapped around to make sure the strips themselves were fine. Returned broken. The strips themselves are problematic. The ends need to be much longer to allow for tighter placement, e.g. B. through holes in the case or through cutouts in the motherboard tray. I decided to cut the wires and solder extension cords myself. Oh, and it only comes with ONE 3-pin extension cable, although it takes up to 3 lanes in parallel (more if you daisy-chain). Actually it should be 2 extensions or even 3. The magnets are not strong enough to attach the strips to the underside of the panels. The only positive thing I can say. The strips are waterproof and magnetic and were easy to apply, but the lack of extensions severely limited placement options. However, I would not recommend this product to anyone. There are significantly cheaper alternatives.

Pros
  • Easy to use with 3 button remote control and installation without additional software. Can be synced with Digital RGB compatible MB and controlled via motherboard software.
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
