CORSAIR iCUE: Everything you need to know

With over 160 iCUE compatible CORSAIR products and a dozen or so partners teaming up with CORSAIR, iCUE now sits at the top of its class making CORSAIR the most feature rich brand on the market today. Gaming utility software has become very instrumental in PC Gaming, as the necessity to monitor and control systems specs and the demand for more lighting control has pushed for a more robust software program that can deliver this ever growing demand.

INDIVIDUAL RGB LIGHTING

With iCUE, you can create custom lighting effects instead of selecting from a list of presets. For example if you're using a supported CORSAIR keyboard, you can individually address the LED lighting of each key or several keys to your color preference. Not only that but you can control the speed, direction, color, and start or stop behavior of your LED lighting! Same thing goes for Mice and most other CORSAIR peripherals and components.

MONITOR YOUR PC'S PERFORMANCE

CORSAIR iCUE constantly measures your components so you can monitor the health of your PC. It gives you the ability to make adjustments that may lead to improved PC performance. The iCUE Dashboard allows you to observe real time temperatures, CPU, and GPU load. 

iCUE lets you set custom lighting effects to inform you if your temps start running high, and create automatic fan curves to adjust fan speeds when you customize profiles.

CREATE CUSTOM PROFILES

You can create custom profiles to save custom lighting, performance, and other settings that will change with a single button or even automatically switch when you bring an assigned application into focus.

This allows you to have custom lighting effects turn on as well as allow you to do things like ramp up your system fans and load custom key remaps and DPI settings for your favorite game.

For example, lets say you're a graphic designer using your go-to graphics software. With the iCUE custom profile feature, you can create a custom profile for that software that lowers your fan speeds, turns your system LEDs to white, and adjusts the DPI settings on your CORSAIR mouse just simply by opening the application software. This means that you're free to concentrate on the work at hand, while your system remains optimal for the application in question.

iCUE ECOSYSTEM

With just a single interface for every device, iCUE delivers simplified control over a massive range of CORSAIR and supported partner products.

CORSAIR iCUE offers control over supported partner products such as ASUS. If you have an ASUS Motherboard with RGB lighting, you can use iCUE to control its lighting and the RGB lighting of ASUS GPUs, too. We have also partnered with a few video game developers like Activision BLIZZARD, UBISOFT, and more. When playing, your actions in the game can light up compatible peripherals and components.

Compatible with iCUE-integrated smart lighting from Philips Hue, Nanoleaf and Govee, Murals extends your lighting scene beyond your desk and into your entire room.
