okay, this is one magnificent gpu, i know. but every GPU has its own shortcomings. this one has nothing to do with temperature or noise or power consumption. it's just the ridiculous software that Gigabyte recommends you to bundle itself with. looking at you, OC Guru II. this thing is just bloody ridiculous. it's like it has a mind of its own. i've had a better experience with MSI Afterburner and one time i wanted to get MSI's very own 980 Ti with its TwinFrozr cooling but i could not resist the RGB lighting that the Gigabyte one had. and boy, oh boy. i never expected this to happen out of everything else that could potentially happen within the GPU..
ok, done ranting, but the thing is has anyone found a solution where your LED settings stick after a reboot or just.. permanently ? i had it adjusted to have a solid color (white) and hours later it goes back to its stock rainbowesque colors or goes to another solid color which I DO NOT WANT. this is one hell of a gripe since i usually try to keep it off when i go to bed and hours later, it turns itself on and turns on its rainbow animation. burns my eyes more than anything.in fact, you can't even turn the bloody thing off when you need it to. or sometimes it just turns off along with the fan stop indicator so you won't have a clue whether if the fans are working or not.
possible solutions for those who were facing this before:
1. opening up OC Guru II, pressing on the padlock above and adjusting all settings to default, ending the task through Task Manager then re-opening it and setting the led colors/animations to your liking (this does NOT solve this entirely, it tends to work like you want it to for a few hours then it goes back to where it was before).
i also tried OC Guru 1.98 from someone through Reddit and it gives me an "access denied" error box when i try to open it though some people report that it works better than the latest version so i recommended you find that as well.
apart from this, can anyone help me through this whole problem? $599 spent just on the GPU and i'm bundled with the worst software experience despite having recent updates. i don't wanna make the LEDs turn off like it usually does since i have a windowed case and it also kills the value of the card (granted most of it is spent on the RGB leds but idk)
thank you for reading or basically ending up through the very bottom of this lol
