ASRock has announced its motherboards as the first to support Microsoft's Dynamic Lighting feature, offering users a native RGB lighting synchronization experience directly from generic Windows 11 OS. ASRock leads the industry in supporting Microsoft's Dynamic Lighting feature, a pioneering step in motherboard RGB lighting synchronization support.

To enable the Dynamic Lighting feature, users are required to update their Windows 11 OS to the 23H2 version and install the Beta firmware which can be downloaded from the ASRock official website. Once activated, users can control the motherboard LED lighting, RGB gaming mice, keyboards, and other RGB lighting devices via Windows 11 OS.

Good to see one of the big ones making a push towards standarization for RGB. Even if you don't use/like Windows, this could help realize the same functionality across different OSs

Not just bloated, broken.
bonehead123I wonder how long it will take M$ to turn this into a cloud-based, paid subscription service, with the obligatory M$ account log-in requirement in order to use it, or at least to get ALL the features enabled ..:cry:..:fear:..:eek:

I know alot of folks have been waiting/praying for this option for seemingly forever, and dream of the day when we can ditch all of the bloatwarez/crapwarez software that we have to install & run for every different brand of mobos, fans, rodents, KB's etc, but I seriously doubt that M$ won't take advantage of those desires in order to monetize what should have been a built-in feature long ago...
Those of us who activate already pay for the operating system. While I accept Microsoft may join the Blizzard style bandwagon of monetising everything in their software environment, I hope they appreciate that people have already paid to join the Windows club.

Works great for me! X670E Taichi owner here. Love the simplicity and the fact there's less software to run in the background it's a big deal.

It managed to brick USB reciever while upgrading firmware(thankfully CM customer support was fast to replace it with a new one). Until few years back firmware upgrades were much easier with entire file being downloaded first(either by user or software) before starting the flashing and verification process instead of downloading while flashing onto device.
ZareekAnything that is added that is not required is more bloat.
This replaces the motherboard and other RGB bloat with simpler setting option. Its far from the bloat M$ themselves are adding to windows. Rather unlike the stupid move of killing hardware sound this should be cheered on my enthusiast community.
