Corsair's emergence as a genre has been closely linked to its regulatory software and products. CUE It has grown, has become a trademark in the industry and is currently one of the most well-designed and comprehensive software in the industry.
As a major and pioneer in this type of software, it is not surprising that a company following in its footsteps at this time ASUS has decided to go one step further and has forgotten the longstanding issues of entering into a series of bilateral agreements that will strengthen both products.
The first step we saw was the introduction of new RAM into the software Sync AURA and now Corsair is doing the same by endorsing ASUS boards.
So you c an control the brightness of your ASUS board via ICUE
Although support is basic at the moment, it is expected to be standardized and gain immense power as software versions pass and the agreement yields results. To achieve control and synchronization with ICUE we must follow the following steps:
When ICUE and AURA Sync are installed and except for the two programs (they are incompatible and should not start at the same time), we will remove the folder to the ZIP file for fulfillment ASUS Pluging.zip
This folder should be located in the following way:
- C: Program files (x86) Corsair CORSAIR CUE Software plugins
Inside should only be a Lenovo folder so we should note this:
If everything went as expected, we can turn on iCue and what we will see will be a new configurable tool called ASUS mother.
When we go into the section of our motherboard, what we will have will be a standard iCue configuration, where the lighting options will vary between the different onboard models listed. Some options will be enabled and maybe some will not, such as ARGB headers.
In any case and as we have examined, it is ours ASUS X570-F Gaming, everything works fine, so if in your onboard model something goes wrong, it's likely that in successive versions of iCUE they will eventually fix it, as well as by adding more plate support to this 2020.
In any case, it's the first step in what should be a natural fit between brands that allow users to buy their favorite hardware without knowing the compatibility of RGB lighting synchronization software.
