With iCUE and the new dynamic profile system, you can create as many custom profiles as you want that fit onto the 8MB of onboard storage. Each profile can store backlighting effects (up to 20 layers), actions & macros, settings, and wheel modes.* *The number of lighting effects layers per profile and number of profiles that can be saved to onboard storage and will vary based on complexity.
