Help, I let RGB lights take over my entire office, and I'm still not a good gamer

The Razer Kraken V4 Pro and Aether Lamp Pro leaning against each other on a desk with rainbow lights.

I've been lied to. For years, I've been told that RGB lighting makes you better at playing video games by the insidious internet, but that claim is apparently unilaterally false. Oh sure, blame me for my naivety, believing in an "obvious meme" that "no one should take seriously" because "there's no way pretty lights would improve your gaming skills in any way." I'm not at fault here, it's Big RGB that's to blame.

Oh well, moving on. I'm still a gamer of average skill, but at least my PC gaming setup in my office is decked out in the most performant, feature-packed, and fantastically lit-up accessories and peripherals I could lay my grubby paws on. My office has never looked better, and RGB lighting aside, I've never enjoyed such quality PC and PC gaming gear. I figured I'd share what I've got lying around here, so you can either try your own luck at elevating your gaming prowess with enough lights to blind the gods... Or do your utmost to avoid the wallet-draining endeavor that is RGB lighting.
