We have tested the ROG Spotlight in different configurations and did not find any issues. Please avoid connecting to USB hubs, and PM me your log with system specs. Note that it is not supported in Aura Creator. thanks.

So you are saying every aura device should have its own USB port with no hubs? would not be a problem save one thing. From my tower to my work apave is a 15 ft run. The cables on the PAG35 monitor is one thing, its a USB 3.0 printer cable basically and I can make that whatever I want and it is a direct run. The Spatha amd core keyboard is another story. I wont make a 15 ft run and must be connected to a powered 7 port hub. Now that Ive yanked the core and the spatha and replaced them with them with a corsair K100 and dark core SE mouse along with a mm800 polaris pad the RGB workks flawlessly except the PG35VQ as the other caveat to get the motherboard to sync with Ique is having to us aura 1.07..79_V2/ install crate and its a bust. All the corsair products work but the motherboad will not and the montor will only work with crate installed, Ique uninstalled and I ge the MOBO and Monitor only. The core has had a mind of its own since the day I bought it. I run multiple Aqaero devices though an internal powered USB hub because I have no choice. $850 R6EE MOBO has one USB 2.0 header. The only thing I have issue with are the ASUS devices. Get those guys locked in the basement a new cappuccino machine. Id give the benefit of a doubt if every rgb device out there had issues. Even the cheap POS hue works without issues. Just ASUS devices and aura/crate. Good concept, poor execution.

I am using a Zephyrus G14 wiht 3 USB ports, dont tell me I cannot use more than 3 devices connected !!!!!

1. PC, using a X470-F ROG STRIX
2. 2x Gskill Tridentz Neo 8GB Sticks, Phanteks P500A DRGB intergrated lighting (3x140mm DRGB fans, 1xdrgb strip)
3. Just NZXT CAM for lighting control of my kraken x63 aio cooler. it runs standalone, not connected on aura setup
4. Wired
5. Yes. Did a fresh install of windows from the start, my issue still occurs
6. Version 20H2, Build 19042.746 (based on "winver" command)
7. Before the armoury crate release, it was working like a charm on AURA Sync Software.
8. My mobo's integrated rgb strip wont sync with the rest of the setup. RAM and Case's lighting are always in sync. But the x470's onboard rgb is always off. armoury crate wont detect it. There have been moments when the onboard rgb is detected, syncs for a bit and then it shuts off again... Yes, aura sync is enabled in bios.. Tried BIOS reset, older BIOS Flash, none worked. Reinstalled the armoury crate, nothing.

SMART lighting feature in Aura Sync > Aura Effects freezes PC, turns display signal off and PC becomes hard locked requiring hard power down by turning off PSU and draining capacitors by holding down power button with PSU disabled; case power and reset buttons don't work after hard freeze within minute of enabling SMART lighting effect, freeze repeats after reboot until Armoury Crate is opened and SMART lighting effect is turned off.

1. X470-F, 2700X PC, Thermaltake 650W Gold PSU, 5700XT Nitro+, 2x8GB Corsair Vengeance RGB RAM
2. X470-F Motherboard, 2x Phanteks 30 LED aRGB strips connected to 5V aRGB header
3. Corsair h115i Pro AIO, Corsair LL120 fans and lighting node pro, Corsair 2x8GB Vengeance RGB Pro RAM, Corsair K70 MK2 SE keyboard, iCUE running WITHOUT plugins active so using Armoury Crate Aura Sync ONLY for X470-F motherboard lighting and connected Phanteks lighting strips. iCUE controls ONLY 4X Corsair devices. Also have SteelSeries software for headset DAC and aRGB mousemat and Cooler Master MAsterPlus software for MM711 and MM720 mice but neither of those programs run on startup and were not running when this problem occurred.
4. 1GB Ethernet
5. W10 Pro Clean Install 1 month ago, always up to date

7. 3.3.7.0, I open Armoury Crate daily to turn on static RGB in morning, turn off before shutting down PC. There was HAL update on yesterday 21/2/3, I updated, rebooted and turned on SMART lighting effect, PC display turned off and Reset and Power buttons on PC would not work. had to turn off power supply and drain capacitors by holding down power button to get PC to restart.
8. REPEAT of 7 since HAL update maybe pertinent to both Version and Description. I open Armoury Crate daily to turn on static RGB in morning, turn off before shutting down PC. There was HAL update on yesterday 21/2/3, I updated, rebooted and turned on SMART lighting effect, PC display turned off and Reset and Power buttons on PC would not work. had to turn off power supply and drain capacitors by holding down power button to get PC to restart.
PC froze again less than one minute after all background applications loaded and repeat of same procedure. Repeat restart and Windows Recovery screen appears, cancelled that and immediately opened Armoury Crate while background apps loading after login and turned off SMART lighting effect to static and problem has not occurred since, until forcing it again just now to generate the requested Log file. PC was basically idle, just using Edge browser and SMART lighting showing green color flickering shades and green to yellow while booting into windows.
9. No screen shots, PC display turns off and PC freezes.
10. Log created on 21/02/04 of PC freezing after turning on SMART lighting effect. Cycled through other lighting effects for about 1 minute each, no problems, PC froze this time after 5 minutes of having SMART effect enabled. I don't ever use this feature but tried it after the latest HAL update. Will send in PM as requested.

Edit: Added Armoury Crate software versions. Please fix your app so I don't have 69 different ASUS apps in my Windows installed app list.

My argb is randomly turning off and on or glitching and strip size is supose to be 21 but scales like its ugly this was working before in past now im fixed to 42 strip size and 84 for another, while it should be at 21 and 56 please fix this is not useable.
It feels like the app is randomly crashing or something.
Please bring back old working vision before i start lawsuit im getting seriously annoyed of my rainbow effect randomly going out of sync as if the lightningservice.exe decided to crash and restart this is annoying.
Those that have not seen issue yet i suggest you do a staring contest with your rgb set and you eventually see the problem also especially with rgb settings that need perfect loop.
