Really? The lighting control is very advanced if you have RGB strips and fans, it also does all of the system monitoring Corsair Link did. Each to their own though..

I have no RGB strips installed, fans I can control in Bios. :)

Ok....I am kinda bored this morning, I'll grab it and take a look. :)

Ok I tried it, and all it did was slow down some of my apps, and messed up my Corsair link real good. It is removed now, never to be seen again on this rig... :)

The Corsair Link has been migrated into iCUE, you don't need to run both. What do you run Link for anyway?

Link is far more stable then iCue, at least on this rig.....plus much better screens and control over my H115i :)
