The AURA Light LED System

The Light LED System

So, we need to dedicate a page to the RGB LED system on this motherboard as it is rather unique and a primary feature of this product. It might only be LEDs but it is a big chunk of what this product is all about. Throughout the motherboard, hidden under the heatsink and shielding, are LED arrays. These are actually color configurable and part of the AURA SYNC LED system and software suite. We do like the ASUS Aura SYNC initiative. Previously, the software was only able to control individual computer hardware such as LED lighting on the motherboard and additional RGB LEDs within the PC case connected to the motherboard. With the new synchronization capabilities, various hardware components' RGB lighting control can be controlled via a single AURA software interface. The LEDs can be configured as ON / OFF with just one color of your preference, but you can also select animations. There's an Aura RGB Strip Header on the motherboard as well which you can use to connect a compatible LED strip to. Basically, you install the AURA application and you will notice new features:
