Anyone here has RX 9070 XT? Is there a way to disable RGB? (lemm.ee)

Hi all!

I know that AMD has software for controlling RGB on Windows. I found some old threads where someone suggested disconnecting the LEDs themselves, which is not something I'm willing to do with my 2-day old card.

I also would love not having to switch to Windows just to turn the bloody RGB off.

I've never used OpenRGB and I don't quite understand their compatibility guide for the 9070, so I'm not sure if it's doable there.

So! Does anyone here have that card and was able to disable RGB on Linux?

As a sidenote: I just realised that my OS sees two GPUss - the dGPU and the iGPU. Is there a way I can turn iGPU off so that it doesn't get in the way?

Any help appreciated!

Oh, I should probably mention - I'm on:

OS Garuda Linux x86_64
├ Kernel Linux 6.13.8-zen1-1-zen
├ Packages 1366 (pacman)[stable]
├ Shell fish 4.0.1

DE KDE Plasma 6.3.4
├ Window Manager KWin (Wayland)

Sometimes there is a small hard to see switch on some gpus that will just turn off RGB. I know asrock cards are like this.

Ooh, nice one! I'll need to have a look for some detailed manuals/design diagrams of the Sapphire Pure, see if it's mentioned.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
