    Question Asus ROG Gladius mouse settings wiped ?

    Hey guys, so I have the Armory Crate installed and have been using my Gladius II mouse fine on my new build for a bit. All of a sudden, it forgot its settings. Not only the RGB but the forward, backwards and middle click. I've gone into the crate and all I can set is the RGB back. It already...

    Question what fan cooler i should buy ?

    Since you don't need crazy cooling on a build with a 1060-1070, I'd go with a big heatsink block cooler (as long as you got room in your case for it). I just upgraded from an i7 4090 processor on a 1070ti and it had the BeQuiet ShadowRock cooler. It was awesome. Kept my CPU super cool for the 8...

    Question Trying to control lightning Node ICUE

    Hey man, so I decided to uninstall the ROG Armory and iCUE and just reinstall iCUE. All a sudden, viola, the 7th fan is cycling through the color spectrum. Now I'm still concerned that if I go off the default/standard rainbow color scheme, it'll deactivate again because I don't see it detected...

    Question Trying to control lightning Node ICUE

    Also, do you think the ROG Armory also being installed can be conflicting with ICUE?

    Question Trying to control lightning Node ICUE

    Hey man. When you say the 7th fan should be on the motherboard BIOS, do you mean the motherboard lighting in ICUE? I looked there but it only shows, 3 back IO and 1 RBG Header. All of these seem to only tweak the ROG logo on the motherboard. The splitter, is that something I would need to pick up?

    Question Trying to control lightning Node ICUE

    Hey guys, let me just say, this ICUE stuff has been wonky. I swear at one point I was able to control all 7 of my fans in ICUE, now it only controls 6 of them. Those being the ones on the Core Commander module. Since it only fit 6, I had to plug my 7th fan into the Lighting node and then into...

    Question Best way to source a 4090 on release?

    If people thought card prices would come down because nobody would continue to pay absurd prices after mining died out, well, think not. Sold out... 1600 bucks... You think Nvidia is going to say, what on earth are we doing pricing these without the majority gamer in mind? NOPE.

    [SOLVED] New Mobo, Not Win11 Compatible??

    Hey man, not sure you saw my above post but the manual had 4 pages on the BIOS that barely covered 5% of the options. Mostly talked about RAID devices. Anywho, a little more digging through the net and it's been resolved though with the notion that you don't need the TPM hardware and it can be...

    [SOLVED] New Mobo, Not Win11 Compatible??

    Hey guys, I figured it out with a little more digging but you guys definitely pointed me in the right direction to check the BIOS. So on this board, it is called, "PTT". It was found under Advanced > PCH-FW configuration. I just enabled it and now the PC Health Check says it qualifies. Issue...

    Question Blurry, improperly sized image when Laptop lid closed

    I think it's just IGPU. Says, Chip Type: Intel(R) UHD Graphics Family. DAC Type: Internal Adapter String: Intel(R) UHD Graphics 620 It worked fine without issues on my old monitor which was 1080p only, 1920by1080. This new one can go up to 2560 x 1440 but I see it limited to 1920 by 1080 on...

    Question Blurry, improperly sized image when Laptop lid closed

    Hey guys, just trying to work out the kinks after completing a new build this weekend that included a new monitor. Previously on my old monitor, when I would close my work laptop's lid, the display would only show on my monitor and looked fine. If I opened the lid up, it would show a duplicate...
