Introducing Vanguard Pro 96 and Vanguard 96 Gaming Keyboards
Unless they plan to add ICUE into it - there is no way I'm using it instead of my K100. I have a full blown corsair ecosystem in my water build and I can't switch between "silent" and "gaming" profiles in iCUE with that keyboard, just wow. Also tried their Sabre V2 Pro and liked it, but it also does

iCUE Megathread - 5.47 Release Notes
Same issue here with my Vanguard Pro 96, 2 months like this. The keyboard works fine but iCUE crashes as soon as the Vanguard Pro 96 module is installed/loaded. I already tried a clean reinstall, clearing Corsair folders/cache, firmware update, removing/reinstalling the Vanguard module, removing Cor

Corsair iCUE and WebHub
I don't like the Web Hub. Thanks to the Vanguard 96 Pro, I'm practically forced to use it these days, but as soon as I try to use more than one lighting level, I get an error message saying the lighting level can't be saved, and all the buttons stop lighting up. After a reset, they light up again, b

Corsair GALLEON 100 StremDeck - New from CES / design flaw
Which is something Corsair should be working to remedy considering they own El Gato and they keep using Stream Deck in their new hardware. No way they should be asking $350 for peripheral that relies and on a garbage software like Corsair Web Hub. I've used CWH a few times for my Vanguard Pro 96 and

iCUE Update Coming - Sabre v2 Pro, Vanguard Pro 96, and Vanguard 96 support
https://www.corsair.com/us/en/explorer/gamer/keyboards/hall-effect-keyboards-explained/ Is there no plan to update iCUE support for the Clipper Pro Mini? Also, the new Hall Effect feature has been added to the Vanguard 96 Pro. However, you are aware that this makes it impossible to use iCUE again, r

Corsair's new Hall effect feature has been applied to Vanguard 96 Pro as well.
In the case of the Sabre V2 Pro, I believe Corsair made that decision simply to focus the product on gaming without software crashes. Of course, there are doubts regarding their software development capabilities. However, Vanguard 96 Pro currently includes iCUE support. The problem here is that they

Why is the Vanguard 96 PRO the most unstable keyboard I’ve ever used?
https://www.corsair.com/firmware-updater/index.html Check Firmware version. If the firmware version is 2.7.163, it is the latest version. Corsair has added a new Hall Effect feature in this firmware. The problem is that these features can currently only be configured via Web Hub, not iCUE. https://w
