Asus Aura Teams up With Corsair ICUE

[BigJohnny]

One of the few good things that came out of CES.
Works for me.

When it clearly states it is for AURA Motherboards only. I hope later on more stuff will be added.

UPDATE: I actually removed the old Aura Sync version 1.07.79. Installed Armoury Crate as I like the newer cleaner look better. Plus the fact it installed Aura sync version 3.03.70. I had to stop ICUE a few times and restart it to get my board to show back up. Then I had a device not available issue with Crate. A reboot fixed it and everything is good now.

Side Note: Sarcasm.
How on earth do you have 10 rep for 10 posts? And every single one is only complaints about each one? This system is clearly messed up and needs to be removed.

i know its for mobo only. but for some of us its an all or nothing thing. whats the point of me doing the icue thing when the software wotn work with my ryujin and my teamgroup ram?

I totally understand. My board RGB wasn't working between all the Aura Sync and Armoury Crate installs. Plus the fact it also makes the ram manufacturer's software not work as well. So all my Corsair stuff was a static color while my board and ram were rainbows.

I had to just reinstall windows and start over. Made a back up of the registry and a clone of the windows before attempting to install anything Asus. It went so good this time, I dropped Aura Sync for Armoury carate and everything still works fine.

I had to try all the fixes and stuff for 3 months and nothing worked for me as well. Hopefully one day we can have it all rolled into one. I'm just happy at this point everything matches. Aura sync vs Armourty crate is a little weird in controlling just the ram. As for Aura Sync, I could just change the ram if I liked and the board stayed matching the Corsair static color. with Armoury Crate it will not allow me to do that.

It is far from perfect but a step in the right direction.

As noted above I had to just finally break down and do a fresh install and make sure to make backups to stop it again. Use aura sync in the beginning and then switched to Armoury crate as it has newer aura sync that on the older one. I had to reboot a few times and removed the old Aura Sync and everything works now.

Unless Asus makes some kind of cleaner for both of the software. I don't see it getting any better. I know most don't want to do a fresh OS install either. We can only wait until something is done at this point of doing the fresh install.

Checking back to see what prolems that anyone is having or any feedback on it.

I just updated iCUE and see my ASUS Maximus Extreme XI but something doesn't look right. I can only customize the Back Plate RGB. If I select for example the PCH on the left side it still shows me the Back Plate RGB segments on the right.

Worked then it didnt. Upgraded FW on MOBO now Aura wont launch and even armory crate doesnt see it. Tried every version even the ancient one thats still on the RVIE downloads page. None of them work. zero control over anything AURA. Only choice I had after it went bezerk was to power down, pull the plug then wait a few minutes and power it back up into the default profile. So only MOBO is running default AURA profile as the other choice was dark as in nothing lit. ASUS cards plugged into PCIE slots also failed and went dark..

Can you control your OLED with the Corsair software?

Do you mean the LiveDash OLED on my mobo? If so, no. I use Armoury Crate + LiveDash for that. Armoury Crake is used to select what I want displayed and the LiveDash is used just to disable the OLED when my PC is OFF. ASUS didn't add an option to turn OFF the OLED in Armoury Crate. I hope they add this in a update so I don't need to have LiveDash installed.

Also iCUE should have a way to unlink the mobo if someone just wants to use Armoury Crate or Aura. The reason is I need to create a Lighting Effect layer in iCUE for my mobo RGB's or they won't turn ON. Armoury Crate will only turn ON my GPU, memory, Asus Ryuo and Phanteks Evolv X RGB's.
Another things is there is no way to change just the memory color either. With Aura I was able to change each of my ram stick segment by segment. Maybe there is a way with Aura Creator but I haven't installed that yet.

I spent two days uninstalling and reinstalling all this becasue of issues but finally I got most of it where I want.

Yes, that’s what I was referring to. The live dash oled display. If iCUE doesn’t support that I likely won’t use it. I have had so many problems with crate I would like to abandon it. I have used iCUE for my PSU but wondered if there was a conflict between crate and iCUE. I didn’t install iCUE with my last windows install but continue with issues with crate regardless. I’m a bit afraid to install iCUE now as I think I read somewhere the plugin is incorporated in the installer package. Will this mess things up again? I don’t know.

Thanks for your reply.*
