Hey folks,

Had my white VGA light on my PC turn on today and can't seem to find a fix. The display works, no issues there...but when I go to play Warzone, I'm getting very low frames, I average around 150 but getting 80. Weird thing...I have the Warzone menu fps capped at 60 but it's blasting into the 250's for some reason.

B550 Motherboard
Ryzen 5 5600
NVIDIA RTX 3070 Ti

Thanks for any help!

As a point of clarification, do you mean the debug led on the mobo is lighting up? And if so, are you saying that in spite of that being lit, you're still able to boot into the system?

Assuming this is what he's talking about, he's referring to the debug led on his motherboard. Some mobos don't have any debug features whatsoever, some have basic debug lights that look like the following picture (I know it's crazy overdramatic, but it's the easiest to see the tiny arse little words):



And then your more advanced boards have debug post codes that look like this:



The purpose of both is to tell you what's causing your system to not boot. Which is why I'm a bit confused. Assuming that's what he's talking about, he shouldn't be able to boot into the system while also having one of those debug lights lit, at least in theory.
