Built for gamers & PC enthusiasts

Drag, preview, save a look, and go play. Whether you are dialing in a stream backdrop or finally syncing the tower, monitor, and desk mat, you stay in control without a manual the size of a textbook.

Multiple canvases Scene profiles LED Studio Music reactive Wide device support
Workspace tabs with more than one desk zone open

Multiple workspace canvases

Organize different zones (main desk, shelf, stream wall) on separate tabs. Rename them, jump with hotkeys, and keep each area’s layout and lighting independent.

Layout canvas with keyboards, strips, or mats placed on the desk

See it before you mount it

Drag keyboards, strips, and mats onto a large workspace. Move, resize, rotate, and align until the on-screen picture matches the rig you are building.

Connected devices list with USB gear recognized

Works with lots of gear you already own

Plug in supported USB lighting from popular brands, keep everything in one tidy list, and flash a device when you need to spot it behind the tower. Browse the growing compatibility list.

Effect picker or live preview with colors on the workspace

Gorgeous effects, zero coding

Pick from a rich library of bundled looks, tune sliders to taste, and save color profiles that match your aesthetic: calm focus, neon party, team colors, and more.

LED Studio with per-key or per-LED painting visible

Paint individual LEDs when details matter

Open LED Studio to brush specific lights by hand, ideal for logos, corner accents, or fixing one zone that never quite matched the rest.

Music-reactive effect responding to audio levels

Let the beat drive the room

Optional music-reactive lighting helps colors follow your playlist, game audio, or stream, so the desk feels alive when you are in the zone.

Scene picker above workspace canvas tabs

Scene profiles — one save for everything

Store layout, canvas tabs, effect sliders, and components together as a Scene. Switch weekday focus and weekend showcase from the bar above your workspace tabs.

Build plugins & effects

RGBJunkie is extensible: ship USB device plugins, HTML canvas effects, or functional .mjs effects. Full API guides and links to the browser creative tools are in the Help Center.

Windows says the download isn’t commonly downloaded?

That warning is normal for a new RGBJunkie build from rgbjunkie.com. Microsoft Edge and other browsers flag files until more people have downloaded them. The installer is served directly from our site — not a third-party mirror.

  1. After you click Download for Windows, open your browser’s Downloads list (Ctrl+J in Edge).
  2. On the RGBJunkie line, open the menu and choose Keep.
  3. If a SmartScreen panel opens, choose Keep anyway (not Delete).

When you run the installer, Windows may show another SmartScreen screen. Choose More info, then Run anyway if you downloaded from this page.

Windows Security (Defender) may also quarantine a new build by mistake (for example Trojan:Win32/Bearfoos.A!ml). That is a false alarm for a new, unsigned app — Restore it from Protection history and reinstall from this page. It clears on its own within a few days.

Full guide with screenshots · Portable ZIP users: unzip the folder, then run RGBJunkie.exe — the same warnings can appear there too.

Install the package with your distro’s tools, or mark the AppImage executable before running it.
