Does the Razer Huntsman V2 save preset RGB+brightness and polling rate without Synapse?

Hello,

I bought the Razer Huntsman V2 last Thursday from Currys Store here in the UK, though I have not opened the box yet!

After reading on the keyboard, I read that the RGB default lighting is Spectrum and I’ll need to use the Synapse software at all times for RGB lighting effects to remain as exiting will revert back to the default spectrum RGB.


I read that there are preset lighting effects where you can press FN+CTRL+1-7 keys to change the lighting manually without the dependency of the synapse software.

 

The question is, does this setting remain saved? I’m reading conflicting information on the web including reddit that this works for the Razer Huntsman TE/Mini. but others are saying on the Amazon UK reviews that as soon as your PC restarts or wakes up from sleep mode the keyboard will return back to Spectrum RGB lighting.

 

Let’s just say I want to turn the RGB lighting completely off from the keyboard or increase or decrease the brightness using the keyboard button presets. Will this remain permanently saved in the onboard memory? Or will I still need the software to always run in the background for these settings to remain in place.

 

Lastly I want to know whether increasing the keyboard polling rate up to 8000Hz polling rate will also remain saved in memory once I set it and exit the Synapse software.


If this can be confirmed then I’ll keep the keyboard. But if those settings don’t remain save, I’m afraid I’ll have to return the keyboard for a full refund. I bought this keyboard on the basis of onboard memory. If I can’t at least save the preset options then there will be no point using it.

 

Many thanks.
