![]() ![]() Why it is doing this?Ĭorsairs and fans of Corsair would probably tell guys like me to just shut the hell up and go buy more Corsair RAM (I got S.Skill out of spite guys, sorry). Leave the service alone for a few days and the next thing you know it's eating MORE RAM THEN MY BROWSER!!! This is bullshit. On top of it if you leave this software for a few days something magical happens.ĭo you remember that Corsair Service with only 45+MB of ram usage? This monster of an application is iconified onto every gamer's desktop and is eating away at the end user's ram. Still ridiculous in my book but when people are rocking systems with 32GB of RAM this is hardly a spec on anyone's radar. Let us take a look at that next.Īnother 45MB is just for the Corsair Service. But I know you can simply kill I-Cue and the Corsair Service will happily run in the background. the iCUE software is just about a web browser in itself where you have zero ideas what is happening in the background of this thing. Right off the bat, it's eating 400+ MB of the ram upon startup. We have Firefox AND Chrome both running those two applications are far more useful to me than what iCUE is doing. Give it about three days of run time and you end up with this fir iCUE alone To add insult to injury Just on us launching Corsair iCUE version 4 which at the time of posting was the most modern version of their software released at the time of posting. The iCue app is closed source and god knows what metrics this company is trying to pull off of your computer as you use this software. Sure! That is reasonable, for now! But the problem with the software is it has a nasty memory leak going on with it. ![]() With the service only taking 20MB of ram and the utility taking 140MB of ram. Outside of the fact that this software is for Windows and MAC users only (I Guess Corsair does not think the Linux community is cool enough to have gaming hardware). Yes, upon rebooting your computer the Corsair utility is relatively innocent looking. It doesn't eat that much RAM on MY computer! Obviously you're doing something wrong S! - Anonymous Without ever considering if there's a drawback to all of this glitz that software such as Corsair "I-Cue" gives to the end user. If it's one thing that the gaming community has always suffered from is the need to have constant eye candy thrown at the masses. At least all of RedDragons keyboards and mice operate perfectly fine without shit bloatware! Depending on the model of RedDragon you can repair it! But for better or worse, we purchased Corsair, we're going to make the best of it by replacing the software with something else! TLDR version: We were wrong! Buy RedDragon instead. We thought buying Corsair would be a good alternative. Well, with our hatred for Razer destroying Ouya as well as repairing a lot of my friends Razer based hardware that company was an obvious no-go for me. ![]() We decided to update our rig with a decent mechanical keyboard and mouse. When we first decided to retire our classic Microsoft Intellimouse (shout out to Logitech actually)that we used (and have beaten) LAN games as well as single-player games throughout the years. And has in fact doubled down on their horse shit! We will see eye to eye on almost nothing! Corsair refuses to address any problems they've had. To get the ID of each device run this via your preferred terminal:Ĭommand: "C:\Program Files\OpenRGB Windows\OpenRGB.We at and Corsair will never see eye to eye. Program: "C:\Program Files\OpenRGB Windows\OpenRGB.exe"Īrguments: -noautoconnect -startminimized -gui -d 0 -m "Breathing" -c 00ff00,ff00ff -d 1 -m "Breathing" -c 00ff00,ff00ff -d 2 -m "Breathing" -c 00ff00,ff00ff Here is the command I used to get it working so it can, perhaps, help others: You can probably just achieve this with a shortcut in the Startup directory Whilst debugging I set up this as a scheduled task, to ensure it could run as administrator, but that may not even be required now. I no longer even load the profile, although that may just happen by default now and may play a part in why this is now working. I have, however, managed to get it working using the command line arguments. I have no idea how this is supposed to work as it wasn't loading what I had configured.
