*The Aura RGB-strip header supports standard 5050 RGB LED strips with a maximum power rating of 3A (12V). For maximum brightness, strip length should not exceed 2m.
* One extension cable is included. RGB LED strips are sold separately.

AURA ADDRESSABLE HEADER
RGB LIGHTING PERFECTED
Strix X299-E Gaming motherboard now includes a dedicated addressable RGB header* that connects to compatible lighting strips, fans, coolers, and compatible PC cases, creating a new world of illumination possibilities. Our Aura software contains an array of effects for addressable gear, and the Aura SDK takes things to the next level — allowing developers to control each LED individually, unleashing infinite lighting possibilities! Strix X299-E Gaming motherboard includes a convenient 80cm extension cable, making it easy to fit an addressable RGB strip wherever you want, and we've worked with strip, fan, and chassis vendors to ensure an ever-growing choice of compatible addressable gear.
*Addressable RGB header supports strips with a maximum power rating of 3A (5V). For maximum brightness, strips should contain no more than 120 LEDs.
** One extension cable is included. RGB strips and Aura-compatible devices sold separately.

AURA SDK
INFINITE LIGHTING POSSIBILITIES
ASUS Aura SDK allows developers to take full advantage of the vast eco-system of Aura Sync-capable PC gear. From in-system illumination to peripherals and beyond, the SDK provides an evolving toolkit of options to enhance games and software with RGB lighting. Game effects, alerts, and audio can all be portrayed via Aura-compatible hardware, creating subtle or dazzling visual cues to augment the action. There's also scope to map system parameters such as temperatures to lighting, giving enthusiasts new ways to monitor vital information.
