Thanks for the input. It can't be in the BIOS, but there must be like a EEPROM chip somewhere on the motherboard that stores the settings. That's kind of important to know because if you don't like Armoury Crate and want to uninstall it, one better change the settings to what you want before you do ...... otherwise you there's no way to change them short of installing Armoury Crate again. I would think it should operate by implementing perhaps a set of RGB defaults if one uninstalls Armoury Crate. Then again, you'd be stuck with the defaults which you may not like. Bottom-line, the way ASUS has designed this almost forces everyone to install Armoury Crate whether they like it or not.

You mean in order to drain the capacitors? Hmmm, I'll try it and repost back.

Well, I uninstalled AC, and tried the power reset several times along with re-imaging the operating system, and all the RGB settings are still persistent. Can't get rid of them. If it worked for you, then you must have a different motherboard. Looks like the Extreme must have some sort of NV Ram chip on it .... perhaps either powered by the BIOS battery or some huge capacitor that doesn't want to drain. The only thing I didn't do is pull the onboard battery because I didn't want to have to reload the CMOS values.
