    OK - Some important clarification: The Smart device found in the H200i, H500i, & H700i will support only Hue+ items. With the release of the H510 Elite , H210i, H510i, H710i (in July) the new Smart Devicev2 will support Hue 2 items. The first Smart Device in the H200i. H500i, and H700 has support for one channel and you can not mix fans and LED Strips.
    If you want the full effect with more accessories (cable combs and underglow), multi-channel and mix & match devices on a single channel, you will need the separate Hue 2 module (4 Channels) and/or the Smart Device v2 found on the H210i, H510i, H710i, and H510 Elite (2 Channels).

    7:29 like the h510 elite? btw nice video but I'm done with cam cause light sync between pump and other stuff is still broken and so annoying, I still have a full s340 elite with full rgb stuff hue+, g12 bracket 2 krakens and I'm selling everything (already cleaned up like new and ready to ship) cause I'm done with closed systems like nzxt and corsair. NZXT you are stuck with cam, coolermaster thermaltake other companies you can go even with no software, or their software or motherboard software, it's up to YOU. P.S. Currently I'm using a CM masterliquid 360 and I'm changing effects and color through pyshical buttons on the rgb cotroller that I got with the AIO cooler with the pump 6 fans and 2 strips attached to it.

    Don't buy this. You get blasted by the brightest level of white light until you get to the desktop. The software is buggy and featureless. Despite being set to ambient mode and the CAM application set to start with Windows, it just freezes on the mentioned static white light. Even when you go into the lighting settings you have to toggle the Ambient mode on and off to get it working. Despite all this it's too dull and the refresh rate is awful. It flickers as it transitions between colours it's mimicking on the screen. When you shut down the system the desktop ambient colours remain projected by the LEDs long after the computer shuts down. I spoke to NZXT and got the lamest response regarding these issues. A poorly made product with an abysmal companion app in function and stability.
