High CPU usage after updating to Armoury Crate 5.6.3.0 (RGB related)

I've just updated to the latest AC version and noticed AacKingstronDramHal_x86 (RAM RGB thingy) is suddenly taking 2-3% constantly on idle. This is with a 12700F and an Asus TUF B660.

Back on the previous versions, this only used to spike when using an RGB effect, but would completely disappear with a static color. Now it doesn't matter what, it runs high all the time.

Which lighting effect is used? And can you take a screenshot from Task Manager?

Just plain static color, no additional effects or anything. I don't even have Aura Creator Installed.

This only started happening with the latest update.

Select effect + Task manager:

We have replicated it, the team will work to resolve.

now even on static mode the lighting services use 2-4% of my cpu (12700K). this happened after the new update which is version 5.6.3.0

Same problem with me. The end of the lighting service only works until the system is restarted. After that, it will be charged again. Please quickly repair Asus.

and btw here is a workaround until they fix the issue: after you set a static color close the app, go to task manager or services and stop the "ASUS AURA SYNC LIGHTING SERVICE" or the one that uses your cpu

Weird 😕

Same issue. It doesnt let the CPU go idle, uses 1-2% usage of a 13900KS which is alot for taskmanasger, CPU uses 30-50w instead of 15w idle

If I remove the RAM sync the crazy usage stops,
