Just looking for some new memory and was wondering which make with the Asus Aurus.

Apparently people struggle to get Vengence RGB pro to work so was wondering about GSkill
 
Yes can confirm G-Skill does work fine.

Only quirk I have found and its not ASUS aura specific, but is with the whole Aura and recent Corsair iCUE software you can now do, you can't then control the Gskills kit.
 
Not sure i understand

As in yes G-Skill Trident Z can be controlled fine with ASUS Aura.

I was highlighting, there is a quirk I have found. Recent versions of corsair iCUE can also now control ASUS aura devices like motherboards and any attached RGB strips. So right now for example I have an ASUS motherboard, loads of RGB hooked up to it, but can sync it all with my corsair devices (mouse, keyboard etc). However the quirk is GSKILL trident z memory connected to an ASUS Aura motherboard does not seem to be controllable via iCUE. May not apply to you, just highlighting a quirk you may see happen as newer version of ICUE seem to take automatic control of ASUS devices so may start wondering what may be going on. Can remove the link however.

Thanks for that.

it seems to me that RGB control is still flakey. I cant control my Corsair Ram thro Arus and you cant control your GKill thro Icue
 
Have you tried using the Asus Armoury Crate? That replaced the older RGB software you mention. Might work better now. You have to remove all of the old RGB lighting control software before installing Armoury Crate.
 
The problem is icue does not control the mobo and Aurus does not control the ram

That is odd! I got a couple of ASUS boards and iCUE controlled them all fine (X299 Rampage VI extreme / Apex) z390 Formula, z390i, z370i strix etc. I think you may be missing the ASUS Aura addin. Can check for plugin and see if there is one called ASUS. Default location would be: C:\Program Files (x86)\Corsair\CORSAIR iCUE Software\plugins
