iCue software is not easy to use.

DeathtoGnomes · Jun 27, 2022

IMO it sucks at this point. Just got my brand spanking new K100 and was setting up lighting and some macros for a couple games, what a pain in the D... (capital letters). However, I been using LGS/Ghub for such a long time, this software is new to me, but that still doesnt excuse it not being intuitive. The lack of intuitiveness shows when it takes an hour+ to set up some basic lighting and 2-3 macros.

Couple things I currently hate about it:

1. The window does not resize despite the mouse over cursor changing.
2. When you click on the taskbar to the window is HUGE, how about some simplicity? /s
3. When adding custom lighting you constantly how to scroll down the window to get to that option.
4. Can you adjust the font size? :banghead:

I'm sure other peeves will show its ugly heads in due time.

I hope Corsair someday gets a clue why some people avoid using iCue. Not Today.

I dont need or use it for RGB. I set (solid) colors to keys for different games, nothing more.

Icue has always been pretty easy to work around for me. Not sure how so or what's different between our builds that the pretty lights have a difficulty rating but I'm game to test it more.

i think there should be a Ministry for RBG because if it dont work right theres a safety issue when trying to find our riggs in the dark

Does it take an entire ministry to Restrict the Guzzling of Beer?

There's a whole thread on icue sucking ball's, it's a long thread.

I can't speak to it with peripherals like keyboard & mouse but I can assure you, it used to be a lot, lot worse and barely, if at all, functional. At least now I'm able to set fan curves which actually work and it doesn't freeze or crash.

Wellll, some of us felt we had earned that rant suffering corsairs ineptitude.

It's working better than ever before, true.

And yet, it develops new issues quicker and more numerous than my ageing mother.
