Hi Folks I am using several of the ROG STRIX 1080 to mine, at night it is nuisance when sleep, anyway to off the flashing lights while mining? Thanks!

I don't think it is healthy to sleep in a room with many GPU's. Just move them to some other room. Even though GPU rigs make a lot less noise than ASICs, its is still enough to disturb you. Plus, the amount of radiation they generate is probably not healthy. Another shitty thing is dust particles. Those fans will be working constantly which means there will be more dust particles in air than usual. Want to be asthma? Keep doing it. Lights coming from your GPU's should be least of your concerns.

You can do 2 things.
You can take the GPU apart and just disconnect the LEDs
Or if it's anything like AMD then you just install the Nvidia software and there is an option there to configure the LEDs. Only problem is it's usually a memory and CPU hog because you need to leave it running in the background.

In any case, I would guess you absorb more radiation from walking outside on a sunny day that from GPU's in a lifetime. Regarding the question, download the Asus Aura Sync utility, set the LED's to off and no more LED's https://www.asus.com/campaign/aura/us/download.htmlOnce you change it, you no longer have to keep it running.

Absolutely FUD....Hes got more radiation upside his brain coming from his cel phone than that GPU is putting out. Id be more concerned over the dust and noise waking me up numerous times in the middle of the night. The dog's farts are more dangerous than radiation from a GPU.

No, it's Windows only, but once you toggle the LED profile to off, they will stay that way even if you move the card to another system. On Linux you can try the nvidia-settings terminal command posted above.

Check the utilities by your card's model at the Asus website. Any electronic device emits radiation. Doesn't matter how big or small it is. If it is creating light or heat, it creates radiation. 1 or 2 GPU's probably won't do any harm to anyone (as long as they work for a few hours in a day) probably but since many GPU rigs at least have 6 GPU's and considering that they run 7/24 everyday and the amount of radiation that 1 GPU rig will be creating will be x6 more concentrated than what a regular PC creates, I wouldn't like them with me in the same room whether if i was sleeping at that time or not. Cellphones create radiation too but its very low while you are not using them. If you talk on the phone like 30 mins your head will get hurt. Don't you have headaches when you stay in front of a PC for long hours? You should also take a look at this term: "Electrical Pollution" http://www.mnwelldir.org/docs/misc/electrical_pollution.htmIt is just unhealthy to live in a room with many "working" GPU's. Sleep is the time where your body regains its strength, and repairs itself. A GPU rig will be spreading every kind of filth to the air and will block your body's natural regeneration at night. You'll wake up tired and feel like shit whole day.

The amount of 'filth' the GPU's will be spreading is no different than if you had a fan in your room or AC.

Or are all ROG STRIX cards are from ASUS? Thanks.,

Nuclear powered GPUs? Yeah i don't believe radiation is a factor with GPU mining. That being said, simply get a screwdriver and disconnect the LEDs. Just be careful with opening the case, some wires might be attached to the housing. Do it slowly.

The sun, car radio, microwave oven, tv/monitor, xbox one, ps4 and even your GPU all produce radiation. Not the same types as each other but it is radiation.

There are more mounting evidence cell phone s emission of radiation can cause cancer. I didn't know about rrue or not and scientists still not sure whether it is cause by cell ph radiation. But what is certain is not using cell phone is definitely safer than using it and can not be more dangerous.

Just download an older Version of Nvidia Experience: https://www.filehorse.com/download-nvidia-geforce-experience/26526/(you need an account since version 3) Go to LED Visualizer and deactivate the LEDs for all your GPUs That's it!
