    Maybe it means the gpu is in a frozen state? When the black screen occurs do the fans on your gpu go to 100%?

    if the leds are similar to the classified
    Those 5 LED's are voltage indicator lights that can help you diagnose voltage problems with your video card. With the gpu fans facing towards you and the power connectors facing up, the LEDs are, from left to right:

    GPU - This indicates if voltage to the video card's GPU is good
    MEM - This indicates if voltage to the video card's memory is good
    PLL - This indicates if the voltage for auxillary components such as fans, LEDs, etc. is good
    3.3V - This indicates if the voltage supplied from the motherboard via PCIe slot is good
    12V - This indicates if the voltage from the 12v input from the power supply is good

    Those leds are in the front of the card by the power connectors...
     

     
    The one the op is talking about isn't one of those 5.

    Here is the vbios led in green...
     

     
    Note: This picture also shows a led lit in the same area as the op, so it's most likely normal.

    D3905 & D3909 ?  If those are in fact LEDs ...
     
    I enlarged the OP photo & counted the PCB edge ridges to find this location

    Yes one of these leds is lightning up when my gpu is frozen. Also the fans turned to 100%.
    And i dont know what does it mean.

    Sounds like you may have a power supply issue. What is the make/model/age of your power supply?

    I would suggest trying the following things...
     
    #1 Try powering the card with a different set of pci-e power cables.
    #2 Try using different vga outputs on the psu when you change out the pci-e cables.
    #3 Try the card in a different pci-e slot.
    #4 Try a different psu.
    #5 Try the card in another known good working system. If you don't know anyone you could take the card to a local pc shop for testing.

    @  Bali2010
     
    Update ... I got a reply to my PM from Tin_EE

    If I remember right:
    D3905 indicates MCU firmware status. Normal operation should be never on.
    D3909 shows memory VRM status. Might be issue with memory power/VRM.

    Thank you. So if this led lightning up, after some time, something wrong with the MCU firmware?
    Because if i play Black Desert Online, after 20 minutes this led lighted up, fan goes to 100%, and got a black screen...

    Sounds like a power issue to me.
