Just do what I do about the check engine light on my car, strip of electrical tape.

Zotac Firestorm?

Just put a proper side panel on. Not one of the useless glass ones

I’ve got a Zotac card as well. Just gotta download their software program called Firestorm. Once that’s installed launch it and you can go into the program, switch to the spectra tab, and turn the lights off from there. Nice thing is, it’s hardware based so you can turn it off and even uninstall the program and it’ll stay the way you changed it last.
Either use their software, or unplug the cable on the PCB.

If only they came with manuals, or had a website where you could find said manuals

I had the same problem on an Asus GPU (not ROG) that had a cyan-purple gradient light thing that wasnt controllable. Then i noticed that the warranty void sticker on my gpu was on a screw that was holding down only the heatsink, not the plastic cover. So i took the plastic cover off, found the cable for the light and unplugged it.
Edit: just realised that your card has control over that light. lucky!

Zotac should have some software to control that. When I turn it off, it comes back on and turns on when I restart the PC.
What works for me is setting RBG to 0
Or those LEDs have a cable connected to the video card
You can either do what the top comment said with their software, OR, go the hard way. Take off the plastic and just disconnect the LEDs alltogether. (Soldering iron will likely be required)
DoogelCraft
Unplug the cable to the LEDs, electrical tape or black marker

I have a twin edge 3070 and you cannot turn off the led with software. I disabled it by taking off the plastic cover around the fans (4 screws, under the fans, easy to get at with a small screwdriver). Then you will see a wire with a disconnect on the plastic piece. Just disconnect it and screw it back together. Should take you less than 5 minutes and pretty easy.

You can download OpenRGB. This app lets you control all your rgb peripherals
unknown_ally

There is a little plug, to unplug.
hide it with some wire tape.
I’d try OpenRGB or look up Zoltac’s lighting program. After you turn it off you likely could uninstall the software and the light would stay off.
GPU manufacturers hate [this one simple trick](https://i.imgur.com/pNrYJDk.png).
