Corsair iCUE Game Integration compatible with Ubisoft Hyper Scape
Corsair is excited to announce that Hyper Scape, the eagerly anticipated battle royale from Ubisoft currently in open beta, is the latest title to feature dynamic lighting integration with iCUE software.
All iCUE-compatible RGB devices in your system, from DRAM to keyboard, will react to in-game actions and events as the battle rages, making for the most immersive experience possible.
In Hyper Scape, players run, vault, and shoot their way through a massive urban cityscape, competing against dozens of opponents online to be crowned the last one standing. The unique setting lets players take advantage of verticality during gameplay, attacking foes from above and below as they traverse the sprawling virtual world. As part of CORSAIR’s partnership with Ubisoft, players will also be able to claim a free CORSAIR RGB custom in-game skin when the game officially launches, to battle it out in style.
To further expand the possibilities of system-wide synchronized lighting, CORSAIR iCUE software now also supports control of the RGB lighting on ASUS Aura-compatible graphics cards with the latest version of ASUS’ Aura Sync Utility installed, joining ASUS Aura-compatible motherboards for a more united setup than ever before. Combined with the full range of iCUE-controlled RGB components, such as fans, coolers, and memory, players can enjoy fully synchronized lighting throughout their system.*
iCUE also now offers convenient access to lighting control and profile selection on PC right from the Xbox Game Bar thanks to the recently released CORSAIR iCUE Game Bar Widgets, available now as a free download from the Microsoft Store app and the Game Bar Widget Store. Developed with Xbox, the widgets enable seamless selection of all saved iCUE profiles and an assortment of Lighting Link effects while iCUE runs in the background, without needing to directly open the software client.
* ASUS Aura RGB products are not currently supported by iCUE game integrations, but will be implemented in a future update.

Good article and great update from Asus and Corsair! Now the videocard is no longer a bench player in the lighting circus.
@Brasky
About 6 moths ago I would turn it off too to play BFV and seem to notice a difference. But now with CoD Warzone i dont even bother turning it off, And also use it to start a 'more fanspeed' profile in sync with the game
The software itself is almost perfect, i only experience a crash when i minimize the app most of the time but this can be circumvented restarting the app or just not touching it at all.

iCue causes my cpu to keep high voltages and not allowing the cpu to idle properly
I have a H100i RGB cooler

answers for you guys :
1) yes icue uses the gpu a lot it's rendered like a "game" (it's stupid really) rivatuner fps etc.. stats GUI works on it typically when you open the control panel no way to fix that the only thing I can recommend is not using "show icue space", before you hide it disable/remove all graphs to empty it, then hide it
2) if you have corsair RGB memory there's no real fix other than disabling "full software control" for the RGB ram that's what taking most of the cpu and keeping your cpu out of idle (note that with g.skill rgb memory I had the same thing but only with complex rgb settings like the audio visualization)
if that's not your problem then I can't help you much more than this, the more rgb and components icue manages the worse it gets, not that on a threadripper cpu you don't care because what takes 11% cpu usage on a 9900k only takes 3% on a 3960x

as you can see I had quite a lot of Corsair stuff, 2 commanders and 10 rgb fans lol, I recently replaced the aio by an hydrox setup which works great and removed the LS100 which was poor quality, don't buy, it worked great at 1st but now I have a segment that bug and stay stuck in one color, lots of negative feedback online

I had to remove the iCue software from my PC because it was using the GPU all the time, even in games and the like. I'm not sure if that's a user error on my end or what.
