Received this card and pleased with performance but having RGB problems. When I boot up my PC the RGB is fine, I use the rainbow setting in the Sapphire TriXX software which is the default. However, after a random amount of time e.g 3hrs, 6hrs, 24 hrs, the RGB will turn red and flicker every 15 seconds or so. I can then change it to any other RGB setting but none of them look as nice as the rainbow wave in my opinion. Just wondering what the hecks going on really, and would appreciate some help!
 
Could be the software's at fault or an issue with the led's on the card itself. Try reinstalling the software maybe and see if it changes or have a look around to see if anyone else is getting a similar issue.

Just reminding you that... you have A.M.D :D

You could try using an updated version of the software? Does it have an alternative mode where the board can control it? It says "External RGB LED MB Synchronization" in the spec, whatever that means, so you could give it a try and see if it works any better?

I'll give it a go.
 
Yes, I believe it's like the last gen Nitro's that have a 3 pin allowing mobo's to sync it's RGB bar.

Do you have any other RGB software installed? I find Trixx doesn't work properly when my Gigabyte mobo's software is running, although it only stops me making changes to the lighting in Trixx while the software is running, rather than interfering with the current preset.
 
Mine did this the other night - I used the software to try and change it back to rainbow effect and I kept on seeing a very brief flash of a different colour then back to staying on red. Set it to a fixed colour for now. Temps have been fine though.

Not got it connected to any other rgb source, it's standalone. Using latest version of Sapphire Trixx too (9.0)

Same happens to me expect I'd rather use the rainbow effect. For now it's been fine since another reboot. I downloaded RGB Fusion and turned off the preset red RGB on there, hopefully it doesn't break again.
 
Can also confirm I've been having this issue on and off with no obvious trigger, another user suggested it could be related to the RGB support added for the MBA cards in Adrenalin 22.12.2 and later.

Yeah it still happens to me on the rainbow RGB setting so I've set it to single.
