Here’s what you’ll see:
- 👈 Left Sidebar: Shows every device you’ve plugged in (fans, strips, etc.)

You can click on any device to control it directly.
Customizing RGB Lighting
Now for the fun stuff—making your PC look awesome with lighting!
Choose a Lighting Effect
Click a fan or LED strip in the software. Then pick a lighting style, such as:
- 🌈 RGB Spectrum – All colors spinning like a rainbow
- 🌊 Wave – Bright colors moving in waves
- ✨ Blink – Colors flashing on and off
- ⛲ Flow – Colors flow in a single direction
You can also:
- Pick your own colors
- Change how fast the effect goes
- Control brightness
- Choose direction (like clockwise or counter-clockwise)
Want all devices to match up perfectly? Use the “Sync All” button at the top so all your fans and strips do the same effect together.
🎨 You can even design a special theme—like a Star Wars look with blue and white or fiery red and orange!
Controlling Fan Speed and Cooling
It’s not just about looks—your fans keep your computer cool. TT RGB Plus helps with that, too.
Adjust Fan Speeds
Click on a fan in the software. You’ll see:
- Manual Control – Use a slider to set RPM (speed).
- Smart Mode – The fan automatically speeds up when your PC gets hot.
- Preset Modes – Performance, Silent, or Extreme.
Use Smart Mode if you want your PC to be quiet when you’re watching movies—and speedy when you’re gaming.
Monitor Temperatures
TT RGB Plus can read computer temperatures from:
- Your CPU (processor)
- Your GPU (graphics card)
- Your motherboard
You can tell fans to spin faster if the CPU or GPU hits a certain temperature. This helps keep things cool without making the fans louder than they need to be.
Extra Cool Features: Voice and Sync
Ready to make your setup even smarter? TT RGB Plus comes with cool tricks like:
Amazon Alexa Support
You can control your lights and fans using just your voice by connecting Alexa.
Examples:
- “Alexa, turn my PC lights red.”
- “Alexa, set cooling mode to performance.”
You’ll need to connect your Thermaltake account to Alexa from the software’s settings.
Razer Chroma Integration
If you use Razer gear (like a Razer mouse or keyboard), you can make everything match.
Just install Razer Synapse and turn on the Chroma plugin in TT RGB Plus. Now when your keyboard lights up, your fans and LEDs can match it perfectly!
Fixing Common Issues (Troubleshooting)
Sometimes things don’t work right. Here’s how to fix common problems.
❌ Hardware Not Detected
→ Check if the USB header and SATA power cable are plugged in correctly.
❌ Software Not Opening
→ Try reinstalling it as Administrator and make sure your .NET Framework is up to date.
❌ Lights Not Syncing
→ Use “Reset All Devices” in the software menu and try syncing again.
❌ Fans Spin But No Lights
