What ive tried so far : Resetted Windows 11 twice,cleared CMOS,swapped GPU BIOS ,unplugged GPU from Motherboard.All of my RGB is working normally besides GPU bar,i can use steady color and every few seconds it blinks like its bugged/glitching.Is there some other step to try to fix it or something else got broke like connector ?

Can i swap from JARGB_V2-1 connector to JARGB_V2-2 ?? The first one is located near JBAT1 connector for CMOS reset and one way up near fan connectors.Or maybe update BIOS to the latest version ? even though its not outdated
 
Perhaps you could tell us more about the total number of ARGB devices you have connected together and the software you are using to control them. There are limits to how many leds can be connected to each motherboard connection, especially if you're trying to use all of them in the all white mode were every led is lit to maximum.

(I'm considering a SAPPHIRE NITRO+ Radeon RX 9070 XT for a future purchase and I've noticed they don't even discuss how many leds are in the bar and the power requirements).

4x Arctic P12 PWM,Cooler Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120SE ARGB and of course gpu.Most of the time SignalRGB since all of my stuff are from different brand,tried mystic light as well but prefer SignalRGB,and also Sapphire TRIXX software since SignalRGB does not support this card.

Does the problem still occur if you turn off the SignalRGB software and are only using the TRIXX software? I've been using SignalRGB for a few weeks and it does flicker when using the Color Cycle theme as each cycle ends and another begins. But I've never seen any flickering in the Solid Color mode, even using all white. Also, in Windows and your bios do you have Dynamic Lighting turned off?

Yes,the software is also not working properly at the moment.I cannot change the color,interface sometimes looks bugged,different texts can be mashed,it doesnt even allow me to turn off rgb in Sapphire TRIXX,fan test always fails even though they're working all fine. The thing is.Ive been using Trixx and Signalrgb for months,untill i accidentaly installed SignalRGB beta build,and i think after that everything went wrong.I resseted windows twice,cleared cmos,swapped to quiet bios on gpu and what not else.GPU is working all fine in terms of temp and performance but only rgb is screwed up a little bit,the rest of rgb components are fine as well.

In windows dynamic lightning is turned off,not sure if i ever saw that option in bios ,will check it out.

It looks similiar to this : https://www.reddit.com/r/pctroubles..._fan_lights_flickering_does_anyone_know_what/

Sorry I can't help you resolve this but thanks for this news. This is distressing enough that I will hold off on buying their card and wait to see if there's further news about this. Meanwhile I'll see if I can contact SignalRGB about this and hopefully they can at least add Sapphire cards to their supported devices list, even if it requires using the card's argb connector being connected to a motherboard argb socket.

BTW if you ever need argb extension cables or splitters I've been using these with no problems:

Thanks for trying though.I googled a lot and noticed that many people experience the exact problem = RGB flickering on GPU and not customizable with the program,Trixx doesnt detect secondary bios,fan test fails.The weird thing about this is that,people really like sapphire nitro+ card and say they're top notch brand,could be driver issue or something else,will see soon.Besides this,the card is really doing well.
