    What if we could set AlienFX to deal with heat temperatures?

    Blue when cooler, > green > yellow > orange > red when system was hot?

    Ideas and thoughts?
    Is this a dream or could someone actually develop this easily?

    I tried FX. Cool but seems like a waste of battery...

    Now if ur plugged in and gaming, might aswell keep it on red permanently lol

    I agree, would be nice if our flashy lights served some function besides just looking nice
