Help Sapphire Pulse RX 6600
Hello, I have some doubts about my new graph, in case you can help me. I just bought this Sapphire Pulse RX 6600 graphics card. I have several doubts that I would like to be able to clarify. First of all, does it have led? I seem to see the letters on the side turn off and on in red. I am confused, since I have a led strip on the pc controlled with Armory Crate and if I leave it as default it seems that the red letters on the card turn off and on. But if I put any other color settings in Armory Crate the supposed lights of the letters on the side of the graph are turned off. ? If the graph had LED, is there any way to control it?
On the other hand, in the graphics temperatures it gives me about 70 degrees in games and around 90 in the hotspot. Is such a high temperature at the access point normal? Should I be worry. On the other hand, whenever I have a new graphics card I like to update to the latest bios. Is there any new bios for this graphic? If so, where to find it and how to install it? And, finally, I have it installed on a PC with a processor with integrated graphics, a Ryzen 5 5600G. When I install the graphics the motherboard disables the integrated graphics, but I can go into settings and enable both. Which option would be better to get the best performance? Thank you very much in advance. Greetings.

Okay so lighting on the Pulse cards is a no. There is not light, some did have a red light but even if it does it is not controllable.

The 90C hot spot is warm but within tolerances, the chips can handle up too 110C hot spots without issue. What kind of case are you using, some case layouts actually can cause the hot spot to increase, these are usually vertical or hanging card designs.

Unless you have been directed by support to update your GPU BIOS do not do it. Those types of updates are usually targeted to fix a very specific issue. If your not having an issue leave it as is, never fix what isn't broke. \

As for the onboard graphics, the motherboard will sometimes allow the onboard to stay enabled. The discrete GPU will always be better for performance. I usually leave the onboard on however if I have the option to use quickly if I need to trouble shoot an issue.
