hey ppl. I got a MSI 7870 HAWK 4 months ago. the card itself s a beauty. but yesterday I noticed that some leds of the back of the card are flickering and some are not working.

here is a pic with the leds.





anyone had any problem with these leds?

overall, the card runs great. had no problems with it in games and the temps are running normal.

I didn't OC the card because most of the games I play run very smooth

When you switch to LN2 mode, those will be constantly-lid. When in normal bios, they will flicker under load. Also LN2 mode makes VRMs on always so some energy saving is lost. I think those are vrm leds. I have 4 more leds at opposide edge too.

I Own a GTX 560 ti Hawk where the led light variation is pretty normal,all Hawk series are equipped with 3 different bios i think.
Power saver,Normal and high performance.When you purchase, normally MSI will set it to High performance to deliver good output.Try changing the Modes and see if the leds idle.Hope this helps :)
