ok writing this on a ROG/Strix Flare kb... warning to future buyers; the kb is lovely and responsive and does everything you need it to. mine has even survived kids bashing each other in the head with it. so far, so good... however, the software is so bad it has to be mentioned. it would drive anyone with a little programming experience over the edge. the Armoury Crate is effectively useless and Aura Sync doesn't always sync. luckily for me i'm not big on the rgb, but i do like a backlit kb at night so most of the time i just use the on the kb light button but even that does breathing. the only place to config a static preset is in the software, which promptly fails
