compatiblity iCUE, Asus Aura Sync, and EKWB RGB

[Wizwerd]

Hey everyone!

 

 

Currently trying to find out if I can sync all my rgb to work from my iCUE profiles. In my current planned build I'm going to have an ASUS Z490 GAMING E mobo and I planned on going EKWB for the custom loop.

 

I emailed EK support and they could only confirm that their RGB software is compatible with ASUS Aura SYNC.

 

If I can control ASUS aura sync from my Icue profile then I should be able to control the custom loop as well right?

 

Do I buy an iCUE commander and plug all the EK rgb into it in order to control it? or do i buy an EK controller and run it from iCUE?

 

If anyone can answer this complex question that would be awesome! I'd rather not have to build my custom loop with Corsair if I didn't have to because I wanted to go with a distro-plate d5 pump instead of a pump from corsair.

 

Also my GPU isn't compatible with Corsair Waterblocks, I'd have to buy one from bykski.

Did you ever find out the information you were after for this? I'm curious to find out this information as well since i have a similar setup with my Asus board been controlled by iCue and looking to build a loop using EKWB parts.

Icue is compatible with asus aura sync via their plugin

 

EK is compatible asus aura sync so you can control EK RGB with icue as long as you have the plugin for aura sync with Icue.

 

They should work reguardless if you use the EK commander or the Corsair commander pro.

This is kinda janky right now but might become great later on: https://gitlab.com/CalcProgrammer1/OpenRGB

 

Having to deal with all kinds of software to handle RGB is a real pain and costs FPS!
