NZXT HUE 2 Ambient V2 RGB Lighting Kit Review

Tweaktown reviewed the NZXT HUE 2 Ambient V2 RGB Lighting Kit A quote from the article:
In many instances, you can hunt eBay or Amazon and find RGB LED kits which say they will offer ambient illumination, and they will, but sadly, there is a camera involved, which creates latency and can ruin the immersion. NZXT looked at things another way. Since the PC is already handy, usually right next to the monitor, why not drive the signaling over USB! What this does is allows the PC to send the colorations the strips will need, sends that to a hub which you configure, and with the flick of a switch, you have proper ambient lighting behind the monitor, with much less latency involved then with the kits mentioned above. Today we are testing the NZXT HUE 2 Ambient V2 RGB Lighting Kit, more specifically, the AC-HUEHU-B2, for 26 to 32-inch monitors. There is also a second set, the AC-HUEHU-A2, which is intended for use with 21 to 25-inch screens, and even for 34 and 35-inch UltraWide monitors, and the kits differ in the lengths of the eight strips of LEDs offered with them. Initially, we were a bit skeptical about what was possible with the NZXT HUE 2 Ambient kit, but suffice it to say, we have been nothing but impressed, and we are touching on just one aspect of this setup, as it is, at its base; also an RGB LED lighting kit that can do static colors and modes, but we have a feeling that once you go with the ambient backlighting, you won't be moving back to them anytime soon!
