LithGeek Custom Gaming Computers

Let’s settle something once and for all: RGB lighting is not what makes a great gaming PC.
It’s flashy, it’s fun, and sure, it feels faster when your rig looks like the inside of a spaceship. But the truth? Performance lives under the hood—not in the rainbow LEDs around your fans.

Here at Lithgeek Custom Gaming Computers, located at 53 Main Street, Lithgow, we’ve built countless powerful, silent killers—gaming rigs that don’t light up like a Christmas tree but run like absolute beasts. So let’s dig into why RGB isn’t a requirement for a killer setup, and why going minimal might even be the smarter choice.

💡 What RGB Does (and Doesn’t) Do

What RGB does:

• Looks awesome
• Syncs with peripherals
• Makes your case mod pop
• Starts a war in comment sections

What RGB doesn’t do:

• Improve FPS
• Lower latency
• Boost frame rendering
• Make you a better gamer (sorry, fam)

So if you’re someone gaming in Orange, Springwood, or Katoomba, chasing high framerates in Escape From Tarkovor crisp visuals in Hogwarts Legacy—RGB won’t help. But airflow, GPU power, and a snappy SSD? Absolutely will.

🔧 Performance > Pretty Lights

At Lithgeek, we build custom gaming computers that match your actual gaming needs. Whether you want something sleek and silent for your Glenbrook study or a compact beast to bring to LANs in Penrith, RGB is optional—not essential.

A non-RGB build often gives you:

• Better airflow
  Fewer lighting components = cleaner internal layout
• Lower power consumption
  Especially useful for mini-ITX or SFX builds
• Simpler cable management
  Less spaghetti, more air
• Less noise
  No extra fans buzzing just to cool flashy lights

🔍 The Minimalist Movement Is Real

There’s a growing trend toward stealth builds—black-on-black towers with zero lights, ultra-clean cable routing, and near-silent operation. They’re perfect for streamers, creators, or just anyone who doesn’t want their setup visible from space.

Want that minimalist matte black build with a Ryzen 7 and RTX 4070 Super, all tucked into a low-profile case that fits under your desk in Blackheath? We’ve got you covered.

Plus, with no RGB lighting to worry about, you can spend more on what matters—faster CPUs, better GPUs, and quality cooling.

🎮 Three Games That Prove You Need Performance, Not LEDs

1. Escape From Tarkov
   Suggested System Requirements:
   • CPU: Intel Core i7 / Ryzen 7
   • GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3080 / RX 6800 XT
   • RAM: 16-32 GB
   • Storage: SSD, 100 GB free
2. Hogwarts Legacy
   Suggested System Requirements:
   • CPU: Intel Core i7-10700K / Ryzen 5 5800X
   • GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3070 / RX 6700 XT
   • RAM: 16 GB
   • Storage: SSD, 85 GB free
3. Starfield
   Suggested System Requirements:
   • CPU: Ryzen 5 5600X / Intel Core i5-10600K
   • GPU: RTX 2080 / RX 6800 XT
   • RAM: 16 GB
   • Storage: SSD, 125 GB

Notice anything? All three are hardware-intensive. None say, “RGB required.” That’s because a silent sleeper build will crush your favorite titles without ever glowing purple.
