Funny you mention Corsair specifically. Also one of my preferred rainbow-brite accessory vendors! Lol
For keyboards there's the incredible https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next
My mouse is a Logitech G502 Spectrum so https://github.com/libratbag/piper works a treat for sensitivity modes, and the light.
And man, https://openrgb.org/ works for almost EVERYTHING. All my little embedded motherboard lights, the G-skill RGB RAM I just splurged on, my Antec RGB fans, and even my Nvidia GPU. Lots of fun effects, too.
It seems the plugins for some effects, and binding light changes to CPU temp and stuff, seem to be most friendly for users of Debian-derived distros. (.deb format)
But on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, RGB definitely isn't a sticking point for me anymore. :)
Seriously though, clear some partition space (or just pop in a separate boot drive) and try dual booting. I started by doing all my productive/creative stuff in Linux and Windows 10 only for gaming. Then Windows was screwing THAT up, and I discovered Linux can run my whole library and then some, oftentimes BETTER.
Steam is the obvious part, but Heroic Launcher for GoG/EA/Epic, and Bottles is great for running really old stuff like stuff I've still got on discs that Windows doesn't even acknowledge anymore. (Something about dropping support for the Starforce copy protection on most discs of that time.)
Your productivity stuff just might work in Bottles/ Wine or something, but if not? Have a little Windows 10 virtual machine just for that! As long as you don't need to pass through a graphics card to a VM, they're fantastic.
The only main reason I'm keeping my dusty Win10 partition is VR, which Microsoft just killed support for my WMR headset so screw them, but on the Linux side the "Monado" project is making strides!
It'll be weird at first but give it a good try! I'd suggest something that uses KDE because it's a very Windows-esque user experience. (But like, back when it felt like your computer ...)
