delslow Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 UPDATE: I've opened a new forum called "CUE" here: http://forum.corsair.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=267 From this point on, I'd like all discussions related to CUE to be posted here so I can better segregate hardware and software issues. This will also make it easier for our teams to go in to review software issues so we can properly document them for analysis. See you all there! - James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScarredMecha Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 If the fix isn't out by then, hopefully they'll have a detailed status update and an ETA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtGranda Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I wouldn't hold your breath just yet. I know it's a closed beta test group ... but if there is actual success in establishing 16.8 million colors on the most sought-after gaming keyboard in history WE'D HAVE HEARD ABOUT IT BY NOW. It's 2015 and secrets like that don't remain secret for long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 2015 and secrets like that don't remain secret for long. Corsair is good at keeping the beta testers quiet about their secrets, they don't have that many closed beta testers yet. :P It's a possibility a fix for 16.8m will be implemented, but I wouldn't count on it 100%. At the very least expect a fix for the freezing, but not 16.8m colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riekopo Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 If it's not fixed by the 24th I doubt it will ever be fixed and I will be returning mine for a refund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathshead Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Why would Corsair change their marketing from touting "16.8 million colors" to "Multi color" or offer full refunds if they were so confident that a fix would arrive soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAvatar Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I don't mind waiting on the 16.8 million colors. Just make the freezing stop :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, to cover their asses until the fix does arrive. They changed it to something that is more vague and not inaccurate like "16.8 million colors."

delslow Posted April 21, 2015 Author Share Posted April 21, 2015 Basically, to cover their asses until the fix does arrive. They changed it to something that is more vague and not inaccurate like "16.8 million colors." CYA. This is one of the most important lessons you can learn in life. Also, I'm almost to my wit's end with the freezing issue. And also the inability for my z87 chipset to run the spectrograph proggy. /sadface Come on Corsair, you can do it! We all believe! I'll buy some Dominator Platinum if we get it by this weekend! =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee Corsair James Posted April 21, 2015 Corsair Employee Share Posted April 21, 2015 Both the firmware and the software are finalized and undergoing Validation testing right now to ensure we don't get any undesired effects (BSOD, random crashes, all features are working correctly).
