ROG has recently changed the Power LED behaviour on its GPUs.
On older generations of GPU, a white light would always indicate standard operation in all power states. The behaviour has since changed so that the GPU can be better incorporated with the rest of the system's Aura Sync lighting effects.
The new behaviour for 12VHPWR 16-pin ROG graphics cards is as follows depending on what power cabling is used.
Supplied 8 Pin to 16 Pin 12VHPWR Adapter
Example: System powered off using supplied 8-pin to 16-pin 12VHPWR Adapter.
Native 12VHPWR Cable
If your ROG 3000/4000/5000 series GPU Power Indicator LED remains when system is in use:
