Hey everyone, new to the discussions but familiar here for a while. I’m looking for some tips on a recent build. I installed an Asus TUF X570 motherboard and wanted a clean white/teal and black aesthetic across all components and RGB settings. I’m mostly satisfied except with the RGB lighting on the board—it always shows a yellow tint on its surface. It looks like it’s not fully transparent, just with a yellow hint that’s not ideal. The side glow of the RGB works fine, but it messes up the overall appearance when you look at the board itself. (Attached photo). I was considering covering the front with tape or paint to fix the issue. Any suggestions? Mike PS Yes, I understand the NZXT logo placement is intentional—I’ve painted it on the front so they align properly.

Paint typically includes oils, which shouldn't be near a motherboard. Consider using electrical tape. It looks nice, though.

The electrical tape or any kind of label would work fine—it was completed earlier by people.

Acrylic paints work well. They are water-based.

Tape seems to be a strong option. I'm concerned it could become sticky if the case gets warm.

I applied a strip of electrical tape across your motherboard's vivid red (in the blue system) A0 code. It works perfectly.

In BIOS you can turn off the LEDs in the advanced settings section labeled LED Lighting.

I appreciate the gentle illumination from the LEDs, though the display face isn't as appealing. It offers a soft side light but displays a strong yellow hue in front.

That's right, electrical tape is perfect for securing connections.
