    So you’re 1/3rd of the way to not having a stupid build.

    Now you just need to turn off the other 2.

    I would rma because you spend a lot so you should get good product.

    If it happened in first week I would return(without rma).At least in my country is two weeks no question asked.

    If it was outside warranty I think  would open it out and check for lose cables or just replace fan.

    Ps. Use your rights and rma this

    To be fair, for such a high price as this card is, it is unacceptable. RMA it. It’s ridiculous it is defective in any way. I’m actually beyond belief.

    You paid $3k for the thing and a part of it isn’t working. Obviously, you need to RMA.

  5. hjadams123

    Okay, you don’t need to RMA. But I have no other solution.

  6. GamingRobioto

    Send back. For the extortionate price these cost you should experience zero defects.

    You either need to RMA or be tasteful and turn them all off.

    You can’t exchange it? Don’t attack me because I’m used to Microcenter having plenty of stock. Wouldn’t this be something you can just return?

    If you don’t care too much about the rgb and your case has enough then maybe you can just turn the rbg in the GPU off?

    On one hand – it’s absolutely unacceptable for the price. On the other – if it has no coil whine and all ROPs are there – I would maybe hesitate to send it back. It’s a lottery, after all

    RMA unfortunately.

    Even if you didn’t like the rgb and would just turned them off, you are losing resell value for future if you decide to sell it someday.

    Fuck that. Wait 3 or 4 years from now and do a warranty claim. That way you get a brand new one and can abuse this silicon for 3 or 4 years.

    OP if you can buy a used car with the money you spent for a card it shouldnt even have a scratch on it let alone an aesthetic issue like partial DOA RGB, either RMA or contact support

  14. SwagChemist

    RMA and avoid gigabyte for this mess.

  15. CrustyJuggIerz

    Depends what’s what more important to you, The aesthetic or the wait time and hassle for the RMA

    Who the hell cares??? RGB is cringe you will grow out of it.

  17. Late to the comment section but i assume you checked the software to see if its not a each fan deal? were one is off 2 are on like you can do on case fans.

  18. DragonJerks

    Believe it or not supply is up again. I would RMA the card or if you got it from a chain like a micro center, you have 30 days.

    Have you tried other color channels? Could just be the blue leds are broken. Try red and green. When did you buy it? If you’re within the return window I’d just return it rather than gamble on someone’s previously broken but now refurbished 5090 that you’ll be sent as replacement.

  20. Are your power connectors fried? Sheesh. For as much as these mfers cost, I’d expect a fucking laser light show to come out of my case.

  21. SecondVariety

    don’t rma now, you’ll miss the fire

  22. Wayfinity

    You seriously don’t need the RGB bullshit.

    Fire is brighter anyway.

  23. REDDIT100SOY

    RGB is horrible anyway. You should hope the RGB stops working on the other two fans to prevent the rave
