Hello!
I've been using a Gigabyte B450M DS3h Mobo for 3+ years, and this morning I noticed a yellow/orange light was on.
A Google search led me to this forum which had an old review with pictures of the Mobo showing the same lit up path in the lower left corner, since I had never seen it on before, and I don't think I did anything to turn it on, and everything seems to be working the same as it has been so far, I'm wondering if it's cosmetic, and if it is how to turn it back off, or if I should be worried and it signals some sort of error.
Thank you! :)

That lit yellow path is "Audio Noise Guard with LED trace path lighting". It is there for eyecandy and i'm not sure you can turn that LED off. Might want to look around in BIOS but holy bible of PCs didn't say anything about it or how to turn that LED trace path off.

Scroll down until you get to the "Audio" part. There is shown what this yellow strip is.

But it had never been on before this morning :c
Nevermind, you must be right! The PC was obviously off when I took that pic :c
Thank you very much!

Hello, I have this mobo, the behaviour of the LED is set in BIOS, you can have it off/on/or pulsing (breathing).

See page 30 of the manual:
(typically, I set it to pulse so I can tell when PC is on and not sleeping)

RGB Fusion (Onboard LED)
Allows you to set the LED lighting mode for the motherboard.
On Enables this function. (Default)
Off Disables this function.
Pulse Mode All LEDs simultaneously fade in and fade out.
