I upgraded to the RTX4070 Super (ROG Strix) from the 3060Ti yesterday. Everything seems fine—no big problems, and my system powers on smoothly with games running as expected. Still, I noticed a red light on the GPU when the computer is off. When I power it up, the light disappears. My PSU is a 850W unit, and my old GPU didn’t have this issue. What I did: restarted the power supply after waiting 20 seconds, rechecked connections, and made sure cables were secure. Tightened the connections and avoided daisy-chaining cables. These steps didn’t resolve the problem. Anyone else experiencing this? Is this typical for newer GPUs? Feel free to share more details if you’d like.
