HwInfo64 killed the iCUE software, somehow it interferes with temperature read outs and it damages the software, restart needed.

HwInfo64 did ask for an update but not tried yet...

Many Many Many compatibility issues with all these software packages.

MSI Center -> Mystify plug in is very cool for prospect 700R lights.

It can actually re-act to music !

It has pop settings and jazz settings and rap settings and movie and play settings.

The motherboard leds can react to music as well via polychrom rgb, music setting.

So that is pretty wowie !

I could not get asus armoury crate working for music.. would be cool if it was fixed then I can make ram and gpu react to music as well.

There was also an incident where accessing my vhds didn't react and weird sound control issues if you link asus armoury crate to icue... or enable volume settings in asus armoury crate... weird stuff, volume would go up and down as I clicked iCUE very strange behaviours observed.

Use this software at your own risk ! ;)

And I haven't even tried the rest yet ! Like AI plugs ins.

Ok I have to do reset because em... want temperature leds back for DRAM. Gjez...

I hope this is my last reboot today, but probably not going to experiment with new chipset drivers to see what that does.

Maybe this is stupid and foolish, but I feel like experimenting, but slightly getting fed up...

But I also want to see if it can "debug" my system a little bit more, or if it will make it more buggy.

So far system was already pretty stable for a long time, but I want more... I want less buggy behaviour... hmmm...

Updating it probably won't help... but just curious... I do hope it recgonizes a temperature sensor 5 on mobo better, because it was probably a limiter or something or not there... just weird.

Some other drivers have updated downloads tool like ethernet/realtek etc... but if it ain't broke don't fix it. Messing with ethernet could be risky if it fucks up and I can't uninstall and I need help from the internet, would suck if my internet goes down.

Ok later peeps.

Strange thing is, iCUE lighting effect was not applied, instead it reverted to device memory mode which I set to sequential lights to indicate "a loading effect"... running iCUE returned the light settings, not sure why this happened, maybe because of msi center/msi mystify lights running, not sure.]]> Sat, 09 Nov 2024 20:10:44 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=26997&PID=161494&title=how-to-control-ram-lights-dominator-platinum-rgb#161494 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=26997&PID=161490&title=how-to-control-ram-lights-dominator-platinum-rgb#161490 Author: Skybuck

Well that crash was pretty nasty, obs studio probably locked up the graphics card, hard to shutdown the computer to be able to restart.

On restart msi center/msi mystify lights tried to replace some mlmodule dll thing but could not replace it... re-tried a few times, tried shutting down msi center in tray icon, didn't help, so finally decided to ignore, kinda risky if software is in inconsistent state not sure what happened... and what it involves... trying to update msi center ! ;)

Wow, I was just experimenting with MSI Center for the power supply.

And I felt like experimenting, so I was trying it install msi mystic lights at the same time I was live streaming on youtube..

OBS Studio...

and then this installation program wanted to restart my computer and it crash obs studio ?!

WOW.

( I made a little video how to get the armoury crate icon on the desktop so it can be dragged into a desktop folder )

To trick to do that is:

1. Open task manager
2. Run new task:

shells:AppsFolder

3. then right click on asus armoury create then click yes to create icon on desktop.


Here is the youtube video:

Until it crashed I guess lol... restarting computer... hopefully nothing bad happened to msi center :)

Wow I just discovered something not sure what caused it:

iCUE can now also control the asus graphics card.

Not sure how it happened:

Either 1. installing the asus plugin and restart iCue did it.

or

2. Re-installing asus aura or an updated version of it did it, cute lol...

iCue also has murals which can be applied, not sure what it is, probably base leds on background image so far I don't like that.

(also adaptive colors based on background image also did not work in asus armoury create as somebody else reported on reddit).

Going to explore iCUE possibilities for graphics card.. hehe.]]> Sat, 09 Nov 2024 19:35:02 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=26997&PID=161382&title=how-to-control-ram-lights-dominator-platinum-rgb#161382 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=26997&PID=161374&title=how-to-control-ram-lights-dominator-platinum-rgb#161374 Author: Skybuck

After de-linking the dram from asus control, iCue must be run again to re-enable the fined grained temperature control... tiny issues like this cause a lot of time loss to re-apply settings... hmmm...]]> Sat, 09 Nov 2024 19:32:04 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=26997&PID=161374&title=how-to-control-ram-lights-dominator-platinum-rgb#161374 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=26997&PID=161367&title=how-to-control-ram-lights-dominator-platinum-rgb#161367 Author: Skybuck

OK, me done playing with armoury create, disabling/de-linking the DRAM from asus control and set it to "smart" for gpu only and temperature.

iCUE allows more fine grained control.

Each DIMM can be set to different temperatures, and heat sensors can be chosen even including the gpu, for now I set it as follows:

Dimm 1 leds: CPU temp
Dimm 2 leds: Motherboard temp1
Dimm 3 leds: Motherboard temp2
Dimm 4 leds: Motherboard temp3

Gpu leds: GPU temp.

Temperature ranges and colors can also be set ! Nice so far !

I wish the pc case fans could also be setup for temperature control, probably not possible yet, but not sure.]]> Sat, 09 Nov 2024 19:30:41 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=26997&PID=161367&title=how-to-control-ram-lights-dominator-platinum-rgb#161367 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=26997&PID=161356&title=how-to-control-ram-lights-dominator-platinum-rgb#161356 Author: Skybuck

Wow background and effect allow stary night to be customized for even more effects, and also choosing random for effect is interesting too, many combinations possible... colors can be chosen... just this one effect, plenty to play with.]]> Sat, 09 Nov 2024 19:27:16 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=26997&PID=161356&title=how-to-control-ram-lights-dominator-platinum-rgb#161356 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=26997&PID=161351&title=how-to-control-ram-lights-dominator-platinum-rgb#161351 Author: Skybuck
