Red light on motherboard

Hello,

I have the Asus Rog Strix Gaming-F Wifi II motherboard but for some reason sometimes (noticed when my PC went to sleep and when I was playing CS2) a red LED would appear on the motherboard. And it only disppeared when I went out of sleep mode or tabbed out of CS2 respectively. What does it mean? should I be worried?

Hello @devify 

Thank you for reaching out to us.
Could you confirm if you are using the ROG STRIX Z790-F GAMING WIFI II and whether the red LED you mentioned refers to the CPU Q-LED indicator?
If it is, we recommend checking for any bent CPU pins or whether the CPU installation is overly loose or tight. Additionally, please ensure that the BIOS is updated to the latest version. However, if your system is currently functioning normally, we suggest monitoring it during regular usage to see if any issues arise.
If the red LED is not related to the CPU Q-LED, could you please provide photos or a video to help us better understand your situation?

Thank you.
