Go to solution Solved by CableMod,

@TVwazhere the addressable LED's are only for newer X299/X399 boards with the addressable headers in order to utilize these. So these are not compatible with ZX70 boards or AM4 boards. They do just run through the Aura or RGB Fusion software for the respective motherboard used.

These look super interesting. The sites I've seen say it's compatible with Asus Aura and Gigabyte RGB Fusion.... How do these integrate with these software (specifically Aura, I know there's an adapter for the various pin types)

In other words, how does one go about controlling the LED's individually, assuming you're using an intel z2xx or a ryzen mobo that supports Aura?

I can only get it to do the rainbow effect. Anything else and it just shuts off.

I'll be investigating a lot more this weekend to see what's up.

I've already tried flashing new Aura firmware and updating the software.

 

I do see "gradient" options but Aura crashes when I select it.

In short... idk yet and I have a headache lol.

Forgot to mention my board has a native addressable header (3-pin) so idk what it would take to work with existing setup or if it even would.

I've seen this done with NZXT controllers/LED strips I believe, so if Cablemod can do the same but not be "proprietary" then that's just another reason to love this company!

I'm not sure either, it would have to be some sort of usb controller

You can make an arduino based controller to interface aura to individually addressable LEDs (strips or corsair RGB fans). I have done that with my crosshair vi hero.

Sync RGB fans with motherboard RGB header.

 

Main rig:

Ryzen 7 1700x (4.05GHz)

EVGA GTX 1070 FTW ACX 3.0

16GB G. Skill Flare X 3466MHz CL14

Crosshair VI Hero

EK Supremacy Evo

EVGA SuperNova 850 G2

Intel 540s 240GB, Intel 520 240GB + WD Black 500GB

Corsair Crystal Series 460x

Asus Strix Soar

 

Laptop:

Dell E6430s

i7-3520M + On board GPU

16GB 1600MHz DDR3.
