Hi all,
This release is primarily focused on fixes and optimizations, but it's worth talking about the new feature: Focus Mode.
Focus mode can be activated any time from the top left of the Nexus window. By default, it comes with 2 focus modes, Game Mode and Streaming Mode.
Both modes, by default, do the same thing:
Turn off all Nexus notifications
Stop downloads of updates or upload of profiles, settings,
Another day, another set of goodies:
Cloud Profiles let you save your entire profile to the cloud. This includes your lighting presets, your cooling presets, your preferences, your theming, your y70, q-series, stream deck, device panel personalizations, almost everything.
You need to create a Nexus account in order to save your profile. If you have more than one PC, you can use the same account on multiple computers at the same time, cross-platform.
You can Import a profile from another computer logged in with the same account, and carry over your
Y70 Touch Infinite owner.
Ok... going to say it... after uninstalling Nexus 2 and installing Nexus 3, after about 5 minutes I was shaking my head and planning to revert to Nexus 2... I initially felt Nexus 3 needs a little more work before primetime. But as I continued playing with it, Nexus 3 grew on me in a big way.
While I prefer some of the UI elements of Nexus 2 (the clock, the themes), I was able to re-create everything I needed in Nexus 3, and then some.
Things I prefer about Nexus 2:
Hi all, it's time for another release!
3.0.13 features quite a few usability improvements, bugfixes for cooling and lighting as well as lighting support.
When opening any ARGB port from the Lighting page, you now have access to a massive list of devices, with all their LED counts and layouts pre-filled. Add the device, search from the list, and add. You can also add generic fans and strips, which come with their layouts pre-made. You can add a custom count for LEDs and re-order the devices on the chain.
This is particularly useful for controllers
Hi there, time for another juicy release.
There's a new app called "Frames" and it keeps track of your FPS when you play a game. This is super lightweight (same as the FPS widget) and the stats get plotted out on your Monitoring graph as well, so you can look at your disk I/O, your networking, your CPU/GPU/Memory and see *why* your FPS might have dropped at any specific time.
An app suddenly started auto-updating? Something started grinding your hard drive? A massive memory allocation by a weird background service? It will all be revealed.

Hi all,
3.0.11 is mostly a quality of life build. Linux support was already present but we hardened it and fixed some critical bugs that prevented Q-Series and Y70 from operating on certain distros. Lots of other bugfixes and improvements.
We officially support Q-series and Y70 under Linux. We tested on Bazzite and Ubuntu 22+ builds so far. You also get the pair remote functionality to control your Linux computer remotely. All widgets, effects, etc. are supported, of course.
[All the Nexus Link fans are displayed individually now.](https://preview.redd.it/xpm367oabjnh1.png?width=95
Hi all, it's time for another beta. As the last one, this was lead by many of your reports on our Discord and here.
This is presented during onboarding, but can turn on/off any time from the settings. You can now turn off Monitoring, Lighting, Cooling and Diagnostics individually, depending on what you like to use.
The features are lightweight to begin with (high optimized and native), so this is less about resource management and more about peace of mind for the ones that just want to use Nexus for one or two thi
Hi all, and welcome to the new Nexus subreddit!
I wanted to thank everyone who participated to our recent AMA. A lot of great questions came through and a few suggestions have already been scheduled or have made it into the newest build. Here's a few that I wanted to mention:
1. Trigger Lighting presets by app
You can now designate any app to trigger a specific lighting preset. If you launch a particular game or app, the lighting preset will automatically switch. This supports any lighting modes, any device on/off and any repositioning of the devices, so it can be a com
