So I just got my new gpu and I noticed that on top of the power connectors there are 3 red lights that blink and when they blink the RGB keeps resetting, Everything else is working perfectly fine, So is this a common problem that can be fixed or do I have to wait until EVGA releases a patch?

    Did you install PX1 I think they are saying that when you install that it updates the lights.

    I did install it but its still the same and whenever I try to change the rgb colors they dont change and just stay on the rainbow cycle.

    What is your Rigs specs please.
    Maybe uninstall PX1 and install the latest version if you haven't tried that as well.

    MSI mag b550 tomahawk
    Ryzen 5 3600
    Corsair vengeance 16GB ram 3200 mhz
    Corsair VS650

    And I did also install the latest version.

    I have the same card as you Ommni and PX1 never updated my firmware either. I assume my card already has the latest BIOS and firmware as I have no issues with my card or lighting. Can you post your cards firmware and BIOS through PX1 so we can compare? Here is mine.

    Thanks Ommni. So it looks like our BIOS and Firmware are the same. I did notice that you are running the latest driver from Nvidia and I am using an earlier one because I hear they are kind of buggy and held off installing them. Also you are not running the latest version of Windows and mine is up to date. Not sure if that makes a difference though. I guess you could try using DDU to remove your current display driver and install the one I'm using to see if that makes a difference. Otherwise you might want to give EVGA a call and see what they suggest.

    Yes, but the lights on the FTW3 cards are far superior to the others. I had the XC3 3070 and only the EVGA logo lit up. The FTW3 lights up the entire side bar and it looks amazing. My pic doesn't do it justice.:)

    Have you (or EVGA) solved your problem?
    Only time those three red LEDs blank on mine was when PX1 updated my BIOS.

    I already did have it installed but what seemed to fix it was changing my psu, I upgraded my psu and now everything is working perfectly.
