Aura Sync and iCUE are now inter-compatible.

Read more about Corsair bringing iCUE support for ASUS RGB motherboards.

I hope this is done better than what MSI came out with.

MSI have done this with mystic light that overrides iCue and causes a mess.

I hope it works. Kinda worried about my dom plats.

Just tested on my asus board. It works very well!

Additional that means Z270 ASUS boards are compatible which were not in the list provided.

Typo in the article. You say iCUE can not support it. When it should say now supports it.

This plugin has existed for a while now. But I guess it's finally leaving beta.

Typo fixed. Corsair made a big fuss about it at CES, but as far as we are aware, it is not exiting beta yet.

I'm guessing that they are making it more public not to get more people to test it. That, and because they are probably more confident in the feature than they were previously.

Most likely, it was very very early stages probably an Alpha and this release is probably a public/open beta. I found out about it at the start of Nov iirc. You could download it and use it but very buggy. It was on their forums and an actual Corsair employee was in the discussion. Now, which thread was it? Yeah, I have no idea

I'm glad too because I have corsair stuff and an Asus motherboard. Only issue I have is the Asus RGB software is truly awful. Had so many system issues when I got it originally. Removed and fixed all my system problems. Hopefully it's not as bad now...

Draw back I believe is you need the ASUS software installed still.. I think. I had to install it for the mobo to show up in icue. Even though I had the plugin setup
