Asus Prime B450-Plus Orange Light

Hello all

 

I finished my first build a week ago and has been wondering what this orange light on the motherboard is and if I should be concerned. The computer works perfectly fine with all ram, storage and gpu detected. If it is something that can't be helped, I guess it is what it is, but this orange color is somewhat tarnishing the "black-and-white" ish theme I was planning to go with.

 

The computer has:

CPU: Ryzen 5 2600X + Wraith Spire cooler

Mobo: Asus Prime B450-Plus

Ram: Corsair Vengeance DDR4-3000 (2x8GB) white

GPU: NVidia Geforce GTX 1070 Founder's Edition

 

Storage:

Samsung 970 EVO 240GB (Boot drive)

Kingston A400 SSD

Seagate Firecuda 1TB HDD

 

Power: Corsair CX650M

Case: Deepcool DUKASE 2

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

That orange glow can be disabled in the BIOS. It's purely cosmetic and isn't any indication of anything malfunctioning.

Thanks for the help! Thought it was Aura sync related, but found out there is a separate led option in bios. It has now been disabled.

Unfortunately, I do not play pubg... Sorry I can't be of help with that

 

I could be very biased because I am upgrading from improperly cooled MSI GE62 with i7-4720HQ @ 2.6 GHz and GTX 960M, but i think everything runs very good. I know the higher end PCs are pushing 5GHz+, but I'm still not used to seeing the constant 4GHz+ on all 6 cores (especially since the aforementioned laptop doesn't even hit 3GHz anymore). Now that I've built it, I think I might prefer a smaller case, and the motherboard only has 6 holes for screws (the right side is just few millimeters short of the right ATX standoffs. When plugging in the 24 pin for power and SATA cables, this motherboard has no support on that side). Wraith spire cooler is quieter than I was expecting, and the Samsung EVO 970 is really snappy (I would sometimes miss BIOS setup because it was too fast to boot). I have a few benchmark results that I did when I first built it. Hope this helps!

No problem. I have the same orange LED for my motherboard too and found out it was an optional light in the BIOS. To clarify, it's not Asus Aura Sync compatible at all, unfortunately.

Wait if it’s cosmetic? Is it possible to change the colour of the light?
