There is a patch-series that is now merged into 6.15-rc1 that exposes more i2c/RGB controllers on the GPU side for AMD cards, so that kernel + OpenRGB (as others have mentioned) might be a solution down the line

Patch series for reference: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/amd-gfx/2025-January/118399.html

Maybe the LLMs they prompted didn’t know about the built-in SSH support, hence still recommends PuTTY? 🤔
