ASUS Armoury Crate vs BIOSTAR RACING GT EVO

Both stand on rgb lighting software. Which one you can start free with, which one lets you read the code, and what each costs once you pay.

ASUS Armoury Crate

Free plan Windows

Choose Armoury Crate if you use supported ASUS or ROG hardware and want its settings, lighting, and downloads managed through a Windows app. Check device compatibility if you depend on a particular control, since features vary by model; Aura Sync no longer supports Xiaomi Light Strips.

BIOSTAR RACING GT EVO

RACING GT EVO is focused on BIOSTAR motherboard lighting rather than a general-purpose control application. Compatibility with the relevant board and VIVID LED DJ feature determines its usefulness.
