Master I/O Control Board?

[Graceciella]

I bought an alienware area 51 case to make my own pc and it had this in it? I kind of assume its to control the lighting , but of course that requires a dell motherboard which i will most likely not get. Is it still any use for me or is it Important?


What does it do and do I need it?

I have had an Alienware, and chances are that is your control board for your lighting, Depending on where you found it, bottom of the case, or on the door. Both are control boards, if you aren't going to use them I would love to take them if you already figured it out disregard the post

Yes, it's for lights. And IMO, don't use an alienware case, they're shit quality, shit airflow, no cable management etc. Can get a 100x better case for $100.
