Application & Control Software - iCUE
Corsair provides iCUE software to control RGB keyboards, headsets, and mice. Recently the v5 version has been introduced (for this model, it should be 5.3+ used)
In the settings tab, you can select the polling rate (up to 2000 Hz), brightness, etc. In the iCUE, you can set the sleep mode time idle after a certain number of seconds. Additionally, you can enable the “Power Saving mode” as well.
You can assign macros and other activities in the “Key assignments".
You can adjust the gestures in a dedicated tab.
The Corsair Darkstar Wireless has seven lighting areas and fifteen programmable, so there is much to customize.
Here, you can set the steps for the DPI selection button and the color of the LED on the mouse to distinguish them. The buttons can also be remapped to specific keys or other mouse buttons.
It is also possible to calibrate the mouse to the used surface (in a wired mode). Overall, the software is stable (but quite heavy on the system resources) and allows for complete customization. You can’t go wrong, significantly, since it’s updated frequently.
