So as the title suggests, iCUE is causing massive lag among my PC and i have no idea why. I have recently upgraded my PC and ever since then this issue persists when I have a few windows open at a time. This can happen whether I'm gaming, or even just watching YouTube. It makes the computer struggle and I'm not sure why at all, the second I close iCUE everything seems to resolve its self. It seems to make the computer lag, resulting in laggy games, fps drops, videos and music stopping randomly, and any time this happens the LEDs stutter badly and sometimes even freeze.

Here's some info about my build:

AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
GeForce RTX 4060
M.2 with more than enough storage
32GB ram
Corsair CV650 power supply
Corsair SP120 & SP140 fans with RGB LED Fan Hub Controller
Corsair K60 RGB Pro keyboard
Corsair Sabre RGB Pro mouse.

Any ideas are greatly appreciated, thanks very much!

I mean, it’s the icue software not the actual keyboard’s fault

I suggest you close this or move to a different post or chat.
Your lag is caused by the lack of power (650W). iCue struggles to give rgb performance etc. the component (keyboard) has no wrong doing or is at any fault. You can check your power settings for maximum performance, or try reinstalling icue, but i suggest you get a higher power psu to be able to fully resolve this

Ahhh okay thank you very much 👍
