Just arrived ! But how I control the rgb??? Is there any software???

I am not a Corsair employee, I’m just a Corsair Insider. Trust me, I feel the same. iCUE is the staple of a Corsair ecosystem. It’s great that there’s now options for those who don’t want to use iCUE, but want to still enjoy Corsair products with ARGB devices and a web browser application, but for t

iCUE Update Coming - Sabre v2 Pro, Vanguard Pro 96, and Vanguard 96 support

There's a new firmware version for the Vanguard 96 Pro (v.2.6.153). I just installed it via the Corsair Web Hub and it seems to have fixed the RGB bug (making the T or O key stick on one colour). Testing was brief so I can't comment on any other bug fixes but at least it seems like progress has been

iCUE Update Coming - Sabre v2 Pro, Vanguard Pro 96, and Vanguard 96 support

Je viens d'acquérir le corsaire vanguard pro 96 et ma T reste allumée en vert faible. Le clavier change également souvent de couleur et passe en rouge. Il m'est impossible de remettre ma couleur de base sans quitter et relancer icue... C'est un peu n'importe quoi !!

Vanguard 96 | O key is hard stuck dim green but only in iCue

For me it was the T key. Well Corsair released a new firmware update v. 2.6.153 on the Vanguard Pro 96, and prolly the non pro as well? I installed it a day ago throught the annoying web installer process and this so far has fixed the issue and I am able to freely change color of my T key again.Hope

1 lonely programmer wanting a full-size custom keyboard.

The Vanguard 96 doesn't use iCue - it uses Corsair Webapp which once you set your lighting etc, you can just close it and ignore it exists. I got the Corsair Vanguard 96 regular because I wanted tactile switches, got their MLX Fusion "Tactile and Thocky" switches, and I love them already - very smoo

iCUE Update Coming - Sabre v2 Pro, Vanguard Pro 96, and Vanguard 96 support

I'm seeing some bugs with this new update. On my Vanguard Pro 96 the RGB of one key (in my case the letter I) gets stuck on one colour when iCUE is started and will not 'unstick' until I quit iCUE, thus proving it's a software and not a hardware issue. I see others are reporting the same issue., alb
