Hello @Lukey1979,Hello CaseySJ,
Yes it does work on the Z390 Aorus Xtreme, (have now just tested 1.4.1) as did the previous version (1.4.0) however, on the Aorus Xtreme, there is RGB Led Lighting that runs down one entire side of the motherboard. Using Liquidctl with the RGB_Fusion2 drivers it appears that it only illuminates one or two of the RGB LEDs on the side of the MB. (I have attached a photo showing in the red circled area the LED's that are working and in the Blue circle the LED's that do not illuminate) The RGB LED edge lighting runs right from the Top to the Bottom of the MB as seen within the Red and Blue circles.
This edge lighting is controlled via the (led2: one of the two 12V RGB headers) in Liquidctl. As I supplied previously with the older version of Liquidctl, please see below for the list of corresponding LED's for my MB.

My System
RGB_Fusion2 (Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Xtreme) As tested and running v1.4.1
- led1: the LED Lighting around the IO Panel
- led2: Aorus Xtreme Motherboard RGB Edge Lighting
- led3: Aorus Logo (Top Left) Covering the PCH Chip
- led4: ESS Sabre HIFI Logo LEDs beside the PCI Slots
- led5: LED_C1 Onbaord RGB Header (I have my Power Supply RGB Sync plugged into this)
- led6: Unknown (Does not appear to be associated with anything on this MB)
- led7: NVME SSD Covers / Shields
- led8: not in use.
Hope this helps others that have the Aorus Xtreme MB and the developers of Liquidctl
Thanks for producing the channel map for AORUS Xtreme. Regarding the edge lighting:
- Do you have Windows installed on the machine?
- If not, do you have VMWare Fusion or Parallels with a Windows VM?
- If so, Gigabyte's RGB Fusion app for Windows can be used to determine whether or not the upper and lower LEDs along the edge belong to two separate lighting channels. If that is the case, then we may need to install and run Wireshark for Windows to capture the USB traffic going to/from this additional channel. This is easy to do -- I can provide a visual screenshot guide.
- But first let's just determine whether the edge LEDs do in fact belong to two separate lighting channels.
