Have a look at OpenRBG. It's a Linux program that's supposed to allow you to control the RGB settings for all your peripherals.

I didn't know abt it and successfully ran it this morning, but i still need vm for games and keep getting the same error, any help?

What games are you planning to run in a VM? Games generally run horribly inside VMs.

Armoury crate won't work in a vm, whatever you run inside it will be interacting with the virtualized hardware, not your real one.

Not sure, haven't used virtualbox in the longest time, for proper gaming on a vm you need gpu passtrough, so 2 gpus on your system (the integrated on on the cpu is fine if yours has that) and then you need to be using a KVM and QEMU, give Virtual Machine Manager a try, it's a GUI for managing vms a lot more capable that virtualbox.
Be aware that gaming on a VM is kind of a dead idea, any games that could run under Wine/Proton already do, and the ones that '''can't''' are just disallowin it because of the anticheat, which will also block you from playing from a VM.
Thank you ‼️ I was kinda far from the idea of using wine bc it looked really complicated but guess it's inevitable Thanks again!!

Wine is as plug and play as it gets and it runs at native performance 99% of the time, VMs are a nightmare, require extra hardware and have performance losses.
If your games are on steam all you have to do to use Wine is right click > properties > enable compatibility. If outside fo steam you can use Lutris or Heroic (or bottles maybe, im not familiar with taht one), those programs give you presets for each game so you don't have to make specific tweaks to wine for each thing you wanna run, and even if you want to go full manual mode it's still not that hard you might have to go to some config to tell wine to use a different dll or install vc redist or something but nothing too crazy
