Any 1080 Classified owners ?

[Dicehunter]

Need input from some Classified owners.

I noticed something odd, The 5 little white LED's in the middle of the Classified, The 1 on the far left appears to be really dim but as soon as any load is put on the GPU itself it gets really bright again.

I've looked around google images and noticed several Classifieds all have a really dim 1st LED, Is this a sort of GPU load indicator or a design flaw ?

*not my system pic*

It may be just showing when the GPU is boosting.

Having said that I would not worry about it as long as the card runs properly.

Just found out from some other Classy owners that the far left LED is a Voltage indicator and the dimming is normal when the GPU's voltage goes below 0.800v, This can be altered by choosing "Prefer Maximum Performance" in the Nvidia control panel.

With the gpu fans facing towards you and the power connectors facing up, the LEDs are, from left to right:

GPU - This indicates if voltage to the video card's GPU is good
MEM - This indicates if voltage to the video card's memory is good
PLL - This indicates if the voltage for auxillary components such as fans, LEDs, etc. is good
3.3V - This indicates if the voltage supplied from the motherboard via PCIe slot is good
12V - This indicates if the voltage from the 12v input from the power supply is good

Always have mine set to "Prefer Maximum Performance", it is not like it uses a lot more power when it is doing nothing.

True that, I may do some benchies once I finish work later on as I usually run everything with the "Optimal Power" setting, Be interesting to see if this changes any results
