HYTE, a leading manufacturer of cutting-edge PC components and peripherals, announced at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) the reveal of Nexus 2.0, the ultimate software solution for monitoring and controlling the desktop experience. Thanks to feedback from its community of hardware enthusiasts, HYTE aims to significantly upgrade its flagship software to enhance functionality and personalization, add user-friendly features that offer full control over performance and aesthetics, and upgrade the user interface with a fresh, modern design.

OpenRGB SDK Integration & Universal Fan Control
As part of their mission to crafting a cohesive digital ecosystem, HYTE is teaming up with OpenRGB to integrate their SDK into Nexus 2.0, enabling control and synchronization of RGB lighting across over 1,800 third-party devices. The Universal Fan Control uses PWM headers on the motherboard to enable intelligent system-wide cooling across a single surface, transforming any PC into a harmonious part of any aesthetic gaming setup.Winter Feature Drops
Owners of the Y70 Touch and Y70 Touch Infinite (Y70TI) cases, the THICC Q60 AIO, and future THICC Q80 AIO owners can look forward to the following in Q1 2025:

• Y70/Y70TI - HYTE is working on a completely redesigned screen grid that makes the user experience more intuitive. Users can easily touch, drag, and place widgets directly on screen, while a new Macro Touchpad widget will let users launch programs, control system parameters, execute macros, and more with deep integration across many Windows games and applications. Cooling and lighting can also be controlled directly by using the Y70 Touch and Touch Infinite screen.
• THICC Q60 / Q80 Trio - Nexus 2.0 enhances both the THICC Q60, and the soon-to-be-released THICC Q80 Trio, making them some of the most intelligent and capable coolers in the world. The Multi-Stat Panel feature lets users fully leverage the 5" Ultraslim HD display to enable simultaneous real-time monitoring of up to 3 sensors. The Auto Focus feature can also change the LCD screen face based on the currently-running application. Users can also look forward to a new carousel mode that lets them change their active screen periodically with custom time intervals.

Music & Media Overhaul
Nexus' best-in-class music sync features will also be updated to Music Sync 2.0. This update allows system lighting to be paired intimately to the music and dynamically respond based on vocals, instruments, frequencies, and more. Nexus 2.0 will also feature media cropping functionality that lets users crop imported media within the software rather than having to create the correct size media with external sources. This will make Nexus 2.0 easier to use and more accessible than ever.Refreshed User Interface
Nexus 2.0 will feature additional customization options, new widget additions, and expanded functionality for existing and upcoming products. HYTE will also overhaul Nexus' current aesthetic with an updated design language to enable the software to look brand-new, while making the menu styling more intuitive and consistent throughout the application. International users can also expect broader support with more languages available for its global userbase through the year.

Pricing & Availability
Nexus 2.0 will be available as a free download from HYTE.com, and is expected to launch in Q1 2025.
