A LED system can be controlled individually by choosing any of the animation effects available in the MSI Gaming App, ranging from responding to your game sounds or music to steady light, breathing and flashing. Of course, you can also turn them off. A 3+1 phase power supply is responsible for supplying the GPU with power. The +1 power phase is dedicated to the board’s GDDR5 memory.
