Thaaaank you so much man!! u really helped me to control individual RAM RGB, I was really sad of my new Asus Motherboard that I can't control the RAM without the sync with the MOBO, but now after watching ur video about Aura Creator I manage to control all of them and even my T-Force SSD :D .. I really appreciate ur help Thank YOU Again Wish u all the best.
Asus is the best amongst motherboard manufacturers, but that's not to say it can't be vastly improved and sped up. Aura definitely still has bugs in terms of dark mode when shutting down and stuff randomly lighting up, sometimes not detecting your ARGB devices and other quirks. But on the plus side it does support a huge ecosystem that is pretty much end to end now which makes it attractive for someone like me.
Asus lost all credibility with me and quality control after those scandalous bios updates which fried cpus and memories, they just became overrated , only.options today are Asrock Gigabyte, msi... f* something which you have to return twice cause it doesnt want to boot with over 2 sticks of ram or doesnt like certain brands
@davemaverick8438 All brands have their issues, that's without doubt. I have an AsRock X470 Taichi Ultimate motherboard that whilst great on paper specs wise, was and still is terribly quirky. I have 2 Gigabyte B550 motherboards at my work that have terrible issues with the Realtek network card that I just can't seem to solve. Asus really messed up with the AM5 saga and Z690 backwards capacitor thing, but it's still the brand I find to be most stable.
@@craigmurray4746 Armoury Crate would be perfect if it actually saved your last selected RGB effect on startup. Every time I boot up my PC, it starts as rainbow effect and only changes after you login to Windows. How is it that every other PC component in my build has onboard memory and actually remembers your RGB settings? But my Asus motherboard and anything connected to an ARGB header... CAN'T?? People say that is normal, but this didn't happen at all with their old Aura Sync software. It's only when I use Armoury Crate that your desired RGB settings only come into effect after you login to Windows.
Thank you, thank you so much for making this.. It is the first video I have seen addressing the issue... I hope that the manufactures listen; If nothing else you have given me options...
Great post full of excellent information and presented in a consise, easily digestable manner. Gave me all the info I was looking for. Thank you for sharing.
Not only Asus adds a bunch of crap you don't need and eats too much of your resource. But getting rid of it is a nightmare. I had trouble uninstalling everything, only for some remnants to remain, including the Asus thing on the context menu when right clicking the desktop. And the uninstaller wouldn't work. I had to install the full thing again, disable it and use the uninstaller. Also, the one question I have has never been answered. Can any of these be set with a timer, when idle or for it to turn off when the display does? I don't mean for the PC to go to sleep. I mean, if I leave it on, because its running stuff or downloading or whatever. And I leave it untended for a time, the monitor turn off by itself. Can the same happen to the RGBs? Without me having to do it manually every time I'm stepping out of the desk for a few minutes.
yeah, uninstalling doesn't even remove half of the c*ap it installs, for me thats an absolute no go. to answare your question, try openRGB, it has an Scheduler Plugin
@@MADM03 Man, I haven't build a PC in many years. And as usual doing my homework before spending. And basically every manufacturer software is practically malware. Not just for RGB but the fan controller and all the features that made you want that mobo. As for RGB, Asus is a nightmare, ASRock and Gigabytes install 3rd party that can crash your PC. MSI has the whole spyware thing on is Dragon suit, and creepy apps like cFosSpeed. Which socks cause I've been using MSI Afterburner for years with no issues I'm aware of. In addition to installing like 8 other "features" I don't need. Although apparently you can install them separately without issues. Unlike Asus that I had to even use powershell. As of now the best option seem to be a separate ARGB module or a case that has its own controller and just take whatever configuration they offer. And thanks for the OpenRGB suggestion, I came upon them and SignalRGB while looking for info. I think I'll pick my next parts around compatible software in mind with hardware secondary. At the end Asus, Gigabytes and MSI has good and bad boards.
18:55 OMG i didn't know this, thank you! I already have a ProArt mobo, just waiting on other parts to start build, also getting familiar so i have an idea what to do.
How would you make a colour run along a strip - say you have 3 fans and you want the background to be RED, but you want a 1 inch band of BLUE to run along the fans ? Is it possible?
20:45 what u suggesting is fine, however, compatibility is universal. it is on you to get compatible resources and it was you who downloaded a laptop resource for a desktop. Now, I dont know if that was indicated from the source you downloaded it from.
Now Aura Sync and Aura Creator now use much less ressources ! I have an i7-4770k and it uses 2.5%. That's a huge upgrade ! But also I only have my GPU RGB controlled so maybe that's why, but still great improvement !
how to have an independent memory/ram to show on aura creator only single ram is derected but automatic sync on my dual ram.. i want them to have an independe rgb
21:34 not a bad idea, however, AURA Creator & AURA Sync/Armoury Crate are different softwares. This would mean they would have to share resources. It is my view that AURA Creator should be integrated in to Armoury Crate. It could be a compatibility issue based on how both were coded / who coded them.
As a software engineer, i find their rgb implementation criminal. From the bloat to the ineffective software that works worse than its open source cousin (why am i not surprised).
Armoury Crate is pure BS and I am totally done with it switching to iCue from Corsair and throw away all the ASUS LED things that came with the MB. Because: - OFF lights are set but I get constantly rainbows or complete darkness regardless of what I set up - ON lights stay on only as long as there is no pending update - You get ZERO notification about a pending update leaving you with lights off (good luck if this is your first time and you don't know it is for that reason) - After each update you most likely do not need you have to restart the whole system - If you are not up to date and have more updates in line you can repeat the process (and all or some lights stay off until you are done 100%) - Sometimes your Aura Creator setup will get lost, disabled or reset - Sometimes some of your parts get unckeched in the tick box leaving them not in sync with the rest (but you didn't touch it) - Sometimes Aura won't detect your device (and sometimes it did until yesterday but today it decided not to - ongoing until YOU solve the problem) - CPU load caused by Armoury Crate is BS (not bothering you when you have a high end rig with overkill parts but still ain't right) - You have to constantly source your troubles through the internet, forums, facebook groups and what not to make things work again that should work flawlessly on its own without you having to do anything - Support sucks, response time sucks, replies suck (most are not helpfull at all and you feel like being treated as a complete dumbass with an IQ less than 20) - Before even opening a ticket for simple things you have to enter your birth date, name, serial number of ONE item (even when you are just complaining about software) ...and many other completely BS issues. If you are lucky enough your setup might work fine with no to minor issues. But if not then you spent a ton of money on simple gimmicks that fail to work and drive you insanely mad. Constantly. Randomly. Any time. For that and all the above and many other issues I am gettin iCue for everything and an external LED controller that simply accepts my input WITHOUT QUESTIONING MY DECISSIONS. Done. Period. F U ASUS. Tired of this humongous crap. Why iCue? Because I got Corsair LED RAMs and they work from day one perfectly fine. If you want to try alternatives first then you can search for: - OpenRGB - RGB Fusion - Corsair iCUE (just the SW) PS: Sorry for all the hateful speech I usually say nothing at all when I can't say anything good but I spent a sht load of money on my latest rig to get the best and I received anything but that. And you get ZERO help from ASUS. The best support you can get is from other users figuring out the same troubles by trial and error and that is something I am just not willing to carry on anymore. If you are new to this and looking for answers before buying then ASUS okay, but stay away from their LED soluton and just create your own non ASUS ecosystem.
My system is 50/50 Asus & Corsair. Would be nice if they would work together using either software... LoL Asus MB, GPU, Keyboard/Mouse - Corsair RGB case, ram, fans, AIO pump... A vid comparing those and figuring out a workaround would be sweet !! Also, vertically mounting that KO would be awesome, if you have any shots of it all lit up, please share LoL I think i got a dud with faulty lighting...
Does anyone knows how to fix , Every time i install Armoury crate my pc windows 10 Freeze . Any solutions ? I do format , clean install , reinstall nothing helps !!!
the old aura software was simple and straight to the point. it only needs a min to set things up. While the new Aura Sync was just pure dogshit that just slows everything down. What a nightmare trying to figure this horrendous crap out.
I need help my 1080ti isn't working with the sync anymore i downloaded the new one motherboard is showing and working but not the gpu it just flashes red cant change colors
"Armory Crate" and the RGB-Software from Asus are the worst blotware I ever had from a "big" company. An update crashed my whole system and I had to switch to an older Backup of my OS. I never will install that crap again...
My problem, Aura Sync It sees my motherboard and two led strips from the computer case. The disc does not light up at all and after changing the settings in Aura nothing happens.... Could it be due to a bios update? I have bios version 1410 Other than that, everything is updated to the latest drivers
I have 2 questions about this software, - does the mobo store it's own rgb settings if the software is uninstalled ? - and if so does the software uninstall itself completly via windows uninstall, removing every trace and unwanted process ? (to tell the story, all I want is to set my asus mobo to a fix white, uninstall the bloatware and never touch it again) thanks if anyone have the answers
I have an Asus motherboard and GPU and mouse. I have had a nightmare with BUG issues!!! Whenever I clcik on the devices tab, it crashes the software. It prevents me from setting up the devices properly (FIX your Armory crate bugware, ASUS!!!! ) I have unistalled and re-installed it SO many times to no avail! (Anyone else have this issue and what did you do to resolve it - if anything - ??????) I love the customization in Aura creator and THIS fact alone keeps me in this love/hate relationship with Asus. I've tried another RGB control software, but it didn't compare to Aura creator and so I begrudgingly came back to Asus crap-ware. I love their hardware, but their software is so buggy it's insane.

Oh, and 4 sticks of 5 volt uv sticks 24 inches per each.
My asus wasn’t ready the vetroo v5 cooler I installed. It just does it’s random rgb. I’ve let it go on for far too long. Time to open the case and figure out why this isn’t working. Can’t find anyone else reporting it!
Thanks, great video! I have an Asus Motherboard & I find Aura sync & Aura creator are VERY BUGGY! I really wish Asus Aura sync & creator would work with Razer Products.
Hi TechLens, Can you tell me how I can change my Asus motherboard lighting. I have Aura Sync downloaded but I can't seem to find how I can change the colour so it is independent of my RGB strip lights and my graphics card RGB lighting. Can you help.....?.
Hi! I've a problem and i dont' know if is a bug, or if it's me stupid 🤣...i'm ok with all effects create by me, but...every 5m30s the lights for all my device connect with aura turn off for 1 sec and restart...every 5.30!ci see in the creator there is the maximu size of the light time but i don't know if i can put it illimited time or not..can someone help me please? Thank you!
I feel like armoury crate is very limited, there's a basic effect I'm looking for that simply doesn't exist in armoury /aura, but existsed in the case's built in ARGB controller (which mind you IS also an asus model).
@@TrendyWhistle kind of like some kind of bouncing tailing effect in which a flash of a specific color ripples from one side of the PC to the other. I was able to make something like by ghetto rigging the rainbow effect but still feels limited in effects.
I have some dominator ddr5 ram with RGB and the are not showing in Armour crate? Any idea? I had Icue at one point and it was the only way I could get them to work, However I can no longer install Icue just keep getting error when trying to install :( Please help.
Everything connected through the system does absolutely jack shit. Honestly the worst piece of software I ever had the misfortune of coming across, being both complicated & stupid at the same time is quite impressive albeit annoying as hell. It worked fine then magically defaulted to rainbow vomit & that's, that. No amount of fiddling does anything.
I would have liked to see two more things in the review. OpenRGB support and what would happen if you set ab effect and restart into a different OS- like linux
All they had to do was put a 328p microcontroller on the board to get smooth lighting with nearly zero cpu usage. The system could just tell the microcontroller what to do. Otherwise you are using the main cpu clock to generate the waveforms costing performance.
My question is: How to use this basic system, step by step. Running the mouse cursor all over the screen in seconds is not the least bit helpful to us beginners
Your title to this video is a little misleading. why not mention that you are using Armoury Crate in your title? Just saying. It would have saved me some time . i have Aura app installed without crate and i was looking for some tips. But thank you anyway.
so..is it possible to plug a-rgb spliter on one a-rgb header to power 6 a-rgb fans?,i have asus rog strix b550 f-gaming wifi mb..and it has only 1 a-rgb header..ps i have the the same bionix fans from arctic
I had the same question, I have 10 fans and numerous argb devices (waterblocks, pump res, etc) i think in total I had 14 different things needing to connect. My little bit of research found that I would have been at the volts per mobo argb header. Solution I came up with was I bought 2 argb/pwn fan hubs. Each hub had connections for 7 argb devices powered by a sata connector then connected to the mobo header to sync them. Hope that makes sense
Lol crazy. I got AsRock z690 right now and ye Polychrome is not as advanced as this, but the RGB doesn't have any CPU usage i got constant 1% usage and got loads of other aps. Honestly losing 10% of CPU to RGB is insane and i'll stick to my AsRock " pink "neon mode" ARGB setting it looks sweet and doesn't consume any CPU resources :P
@@O.G.Trashboat Having an MSI motherboard myself, Aura creator just has way more features that out classes any other RGB software. things like stacking effects, and choosing colors in the effects.
i have an all-Asus ROG AM5 build except with a single Asus TUF GPU as the only other difference, which is still under the the aura sync umbrella, except one major problem, it no longer detects the asus tuf gpu, no matter how or from where i install/uninstall this stupid bloated software.... it makes no sense, i even downloaded it from the Asus TUF RX 6800 OC edition webpage and it STILL DOES NOT DETECT THE DAMN GPU, I CANNOT GET IT TO WORK.
I like the Asus software but I do not find it helpful for Lian Li infinity fans there own software works pretty well. At least you can turn things off in it
After having to reinstall windows 3 times after installing Asus Armory Crate when the pc would constantly reboot to blue screens or not even boot at all my pc finally works when I refused to install anything Asus rgb related. DON'T INSTALL ARMORY CRATE.
now its fixed i gt a ryou iii 3 aio , rog gpu stand , rog keyboard ,rog miuse, rog motherboard all rgb my cpu usage is 1 to 2%. My cpu is i5 13600k windows 11
the cpu usage is wrong. i dont know wath are your correct settings but i habe three profills for rgb associated to variouse types of games(groupoes) like arpg fps etc, and with the lighting working the cpu usage Ryzen 5600X arew about 2-5% . so i can confirmed that you are doingg something wrong.
i had crate for a couple months this year.. its INSANE how even my 5800x n 6700xt get tanked by this this bs cause it isnt just rgb nah nah.. fancontrol, but it doesnt let you do anything for that you need another bloadware.. than i dont know how many asus update task going off ever now and than.. while getting no more than maybee 3 updates a year.. ciao crate hello open source... open rgb+fancontroll from github even beeing complicater to start with its waay simpler than this waiste off power
installed software... worked perfectly... restarted computer... software doesn't see any devices... haven't been able to get it to work since
Same here did you ever find a fix
Maybe it's because your fans are not connected to the rgb 3 pins and are connected to 4 pins
I figured it out. You have to use asus armory crate. It shows up there and I’m happy now that it’s working. Super customizable.😊
Same. Plus it shut off all rgb for me. Lost
Uninstall reinstall fixed it for me
My biggest problem I’ve had is I have to open it almost every time I start my pc because the effects freeze if I don’t.

Armoury Crate is pure BS and I am totally done with it switching to iCue from Corsair and throw away all the ASUS LED things that came with the MB. Because:
- OFF lights are set but I get constantly rainbows or complete darkness regardless of what I set up
- ON lights stay on only as long as there is no pending update
- You get ZERO notification about a pending update leaving you with lights off (good luck if this is your first time and you don't know it is for that reason)
- After each update you most likely do not need you have to restart the whole system
- If you are not up to date and have more updates in line you can repeat the process (and all or some lights stay off until you are done 100%)
- Sometimes your Aura Creator setup will get lost, disabled or reset
- Sometimes some of your parts get unckeched in the tick box leaving them not in sync with the rest (but you didn't touch it)
- Sometimes Aura won't detect your device (and sometimes it did until yesterday but today it decided not to - ongoing until YOU solve the problem)
- CPU load caused by Armoury Crate is BS (not bothering you when you have a high end rig with overkill parts but still ain't right)
- You have to constantly source your troubles through the internet, forums, facebook groups and what not to make things work again that should work flawlessly on its own without you having to do anything
- Support sucks, response time sucks, replies suck (most are not helpfull at all and you feel like being treated as a complete dumbass with an IQ less than 20)
- Before even opening a ticket for simple things you have to enter your birth date, name, serial number of ONE item (even when you are just complaining about software)
...and many other completely BS issues. If you are lucky enough your setup might work fine with no to minor issues. But if not then you spent a ton of money on simple gimmicks that fail to work and drive you insanely mad. Constantly. Randomly. Any time.

Oh, and 4 sticks of 5 volt uv sticks 24 inches per each.
yo wheres that roundup video. would love to see who has a better rgb software. Or at least how you'd score them
6% of modern cpu for led control is insane.
My asus wasn’t ready the vetroo v5 cooler I installed. It just does it’s random rgb. I’ve let it go on for far too long. Time to open the case and figure out why this isn’t working. Can’t find anyone else reporting it!
Thanks, great video! I have an Asus Motherboard & I find Aura sync & Aura creator are VERY BUGGY! I really wish Asus Aura sync & creator would work with Razer Products.
does it sync with razer ?
Can it detect and customize rgb effects of non asus gpus?
no
Hi TechLens,
Can you tell me how I can change my Asus motherboard lighting. I have Aura Sync downloaded but I can't seem to find how I can change the colour so it is independent of my RGB strip lights and my graphics card RGB lighting. Can you help.....?.
Installed app could not make my ram or anything change colors
Hi! I've a problem and i dont' know if is a bug, or if it's me stupid 🤣...i'm ok with all effects create by me, but...every 5m30s the lights for all my device connect with aura turn off for 1 sec and restart...every 5.30!ci see in the creator there is the maximu size of the light time but i don't know if i can put it illimited time or not..can someone help me please? Thank you!
I feel like armoury crate is very limited, there's a basic effect I'm looking for that simply doesn't exist in armoury /aura, but existsed in the case's built in ARGB controller (which mind you IS also an asus model).
what effect was it?
@@TrendyWhistle kind of like some kind of bouncing tailing effect in which a flash of a specific color ripples from one side of the PC to the other. I was able to make something like by ghetto rigging the rainbow effect but still feels limited in effects.
@@Eyeofnelms hi do you know if we can use aura to turn off the rgb?
@@rahul-qm9fi Yes, just select "dark" when choosing themes, or set the "static" color to black. That will turn off the RGB.
@@Eyeofnelms and will still have cpu usage😂
I have some dominator ddr5 ram with RGB and the are not showing in Armour crate? Any idea? I had Icue at one point and it was the only way I could get them to work, However I can no longer install Icue just keep getting error when trying to install :( Please help.
Does any ARGB device work, or do they have to specifically mention being Aura Sync compatible?
anything labeled aura sync will work
my rog 6650XT isn't detected by the software :(
Everything connected through the system does absolutely jack shit. Honestly the worst piece of software I ever had the misfortune of coming across, being both complicated & stupid at the same time is quite impressive albeit annoying as hell. It worked fine then magically defaulted to rainbow vomit & that's, that. No amount of fiddling does anything.
I would have liked to see two more things in the review. OpenRGB support and what would happen if you set ab effect and restart into a different OS- like linux
All they had to do was put a 328p microcontroller on the board to get smooth lighting with nearly zero cpu usage. The system could just tell the microcontroller what to do. Otherwise you are using the main cpu clock to generate the waveforms costing performance.
My question is: How to use this basic system, step by step. Running the mouse cursor all over the screen in seconds is not the least bit helpful to us beginners
Summa sumarum Good vid so thank you.
Your title to this video is a little misleading. why not mention that you are using Armoury Crate in your title? Just saying. It would have saved me some time . i have Aura app installed without crate and i was looking for some tips. But thank you anyway.
so..is it possible to plug a-rgb spliter on one a-rgb header to power 6 a-rgb fans?,i have asus rog strix b550 f-gaming wifi mb..and it has only 1 a-rgb header..ps i have the the same bionix fans from arctic
I had the same question, I have 10 fans and numerous argb devices (waterblocks, pump res, etc) i think in total I had 14 different things needing to connect. My little bit of research found that I would have been at the volts per mobo argb header. Solution I came up with was I bought 2 argb/pwn fan hubs. Each hub had connections for 7 argb devices powered by a sata connector then connected to the mobo header to sync them. Hope that makes sense
i really cant find an argb header. however i have the rGB header and tried to sync it using an argb converter. no luck. aura sync is hot garbage
Lol crazy. I got AsRock z690 right now and ye Polychrome is not as advanced as this, but the RGB doesn't have any CPU usage i got constant 1% usage and got loads of other aps. Honestly losing 10% of CPU to RGB is insane and i'll stick to my AsRock " pink "neon mode" ARGB setting it looks sweet and doesn't consume any CPU resources :P
This does make me wonder why other motherboard manufacturers haven't created a competitor to Aura creator
@A_Dreamer ??????? There is other software to control RGB Lighting. For example, MSI uses Mystic Lighting. Just to name 1 off the top of my head
@@O.G.Trashboat Having an MSI motherboard myself, Aura creator just has way more features that out classes any other RGB software. things like stacking effects, and choosing colors in the effects.
I can never get my Corsair RAM to show up in AC.
I don't know if I'm missing something or not but aura sync is needlessly complicated and has boring effects compared to icue
Edit I mean aura creator
What case is that
Lian Li Lancool II Mesh
Asus Aura Sync has so many crap running in the back ground.
on my x299 a-ii its actually nice
i have an all-Asus ROG AM5 build except with a single Asus TUF GPU as the only other difference, which is still under the the aura sync umbrella, except one major problem, it no longer detects the asus tuf gpu, no matter how or from where i install/uninstall this stupid bloated software.... it makes no sense, i even downloaded it from the Asus TUF RX 6800 OC edition webpage and it STILL DOES NOT DETECT THE DAMN GPU, I CANNOT GET IT TO WORK.
I like the Asus software but I do not find it helpful for Lian Li infinity fans there own software works pretty well. At least you can turn things off in it
the crater not even supported for AMD based Asus boards.. have Asus ROG Zenith Extreme Alpha.. this is not supported
After having to reinstall windows 3 times after installing Asus Armory Crate when the pc would constantly reboot to blue screens or not even boot at all my pc finally works when I refused to install anything Asus rgb related. DON'T INSTALL ARMORY CRATE.
ASRock has the best software, its not bloated like the ASUS software and doesnt effect system performance like the ASUS software does
another soft to keep the processor busy. We need a "gaming" setup without lights, less power consumed the better.
Is there a download for mac
Armoury crate is bad the old aura was better
100% agreed
Will aura even recognize my GPU?
Evge 3080 12g ftw hydro copper.......
now its fixed i gt a ryou iii 3 aio , rog gpu stand , rog keyboard ,rog miuse, rog motherboard all rgb my cpu usage is 1 to 2%. My cpu is i5 13600k windows 11
Bcs you need a university course to use your GPU's RGB lights.
I've used software from all the major brands. Armoury Crate is the most bloated and buggy POS I've ever touched.
the cpu usage is wrong. i dont know wath are your correct settings but i habe three profills for rgb associated to variouse types of games(groupoes) like arpg fps etc, and with the lighting working the cpu usage Ryzen 5600X arew about 2-5% . so i can confirmed that you are doingg something wrong.
i had crate for a couple months this year.. its INSANE how even my 5800x n 6700xt get tanked by this this bs cause it isnt just rgb nah nah.. fancontrol, but it doesnt let you do anything for that you need another bloadware.. than i dont know how many asus update task going off ever now and than.. while getting no more than maybee 3 updates a year.. ciao crate hello open source... open rgb+fancontroll from github even beeing complicater to start with its waay simpler than this waiste off power
I refuse to install any type of bloatware. RGB fusion, armory crate, mystic light, etc; it's all garbage.
GOAT
This software confuses the shit out of me.
stupid asus Aura Sync software. I find lian Li Uni Fan box is far more easy to use.
From economics into affects, that r not effects, I am not sure. mb
Right accents how is that related to economics and financials? mb
