Is this false advertising?

    They're using the same product images from our site, so I don't think it's wrong.

    Can the card do lighting like that or is just for advertising?

    The card doe not have addressable LED’s. The image is photo shopped to show the colors the are available. 

    The box doesn't glow like this either. Thats also a Photoshop effect.

     
    To get addressable LED's, it would take a different controller and a lot more LED's.  The image above is just to show the range of colors available, and not for the lighting effects that card is capable of.
     
    These are the actual effects:  Notice that there is no light at the end of the card, and there is not unrealistic overcast of light that looks like it is a mist over the fan blades.

    I'm kind of surprised EVGA couldn't offer a bit more from the RGB lighting with the 20 Series, addressable LED’s are almost an expectation now day's. If not addressable LED's maybe at least a bit more RGB customize-ability, like some gradients etc. Maybe it is overkill for a logo badge I dunno.
