Hmm,,, " Armoury Crate definitely compromises maximum performance " that's an interesting statement. I actually think Armory Create does an excellent job at maximizing performance, the issue is that there are two types of audiences that use this platform. There are the younger kids that have gaming laptops and want cool wallpapers and animated dogs exc. Then you have the adults that just want updates, high performance cooling and some in case lighting control. The problem is that Asus doesn't have both, there needs to be a lite version and a full version. We currently have a version that is full of bloat trash. Whoever the genius was that thought it was a good idea to add Halloween and Christmas lighting effects needs to be fired, because prior to that Halloween update Armory Create ran good,, not great but I wasn't getting crashes over ......
ASUS\AacAmbientHal\AacAmbientLighting.exe,
ASUS\AsusFanControlService\2.03.20\AsusFanControlService.exe
What leaves a bitter taste in everyone's mouth is the lack of disconnect that there is between the users of Armory Create and the Asus developers. Even as we speak this whole debacle is still not fixed. I for myself decided to remove Armory Create after multiple crashes. My reliability was basically 1 and after spending just shy of $10K having this streaming / gaming computer built I was concerned about damage from the crashes while under load it was insanity. The truth of the matter is that Armory Create kept my temps under control, I've been pretty content with the software but when 50,000 people view a topic and are having the same issues and there's no response from Asus people start to look for alternative outlets to get updates. Sooner or later I'm gonna need updates but until Asus gets there act together I refuse to install this bloatware filled program. The way I see it is Ghelper is not the answer, I'd rather have no updates then to stick Ghelper into my machine. Ghelper is not made for the type of performance I need. I took a look at the program and I don't see a benefit to installing it. Frankly the motherboard is able to control all your temps your fans and Aio pump and if your motherboard allows, you can even customize your cooling parameters. My Motherboard is the ( ROG Maximus Z790 Hero ) this board is clearly able to control everything you throw at it. So when it comes to " Armoury Crate definitely compromises maximum performance " I would say maybe you need to take another look at Armory Create. Now if only the Developers can fix this program so we all can get on with our lives !!!!
