So I've got a RGB IO Pump and RGB on my motherboard. Is it a problem that they stay lit when the PC is shutdown?
Or do I have to kill the power every time?

Not a problem, imo. They may also just take a while to drain the power out. Or they may just keep asking the PSU for power despite not having an active connection to the motherboard. Or the motherboard may be requesting power even though the OS is shutdown so that it can provide power to things like RGB (and also letting your computer start from a mouse click or something).
By Lupercal Go To PostSo I've got a RGB IO Pump and RGB on my motherboard. Is it a problem that they stay lit when the PC is shutdown?There’s a setting in the BIOS or in the RGB software to turn the lights off while shutdown. I can’t remember which or if it varies from board to board, but I had the same issues with 5v RGB in my PC.
Or do I have to kill the power every time?
Hmmm, I might check in the BIOS, can't seem to find an option in the software.
But if it's not a problem then I might just leave it.
Never had RGB before so I wasn't sure.

By Lupercal Go To PostHmmm, I might check in the BIOS, can't seem to find an option in the software.It might be under a USB power setting in the BIOS. If it’s 5v RGB (3 pin) then it’s likely staying on since the 5v rail stays on to charge via USB while the PC is shutdown.

So the Club3D DP 1.4 to HDMI 2.1 (CAC-1085) adapter is absolute dog shit and I don’t recommend it.
At 4K/60hz, I only have options for RGB/4:2:2/4:2:0. With a normal HDMI 2.1b cable at 4K/60hz, I also get 4:4:4.
At 120hz, I get those same settings, still no 4:4:4, and the picture quality is distorted as fuck.
I’ve emailed Club3D, they sent me an update for the drivers and firmware, but even after installing them, the PQ is still fucked with it.
The fault might not lay completely at Club3D’s feet. I’ve read since that a Nvidia driver update broke compatibility with it a couple months ago, but given the premium they sell this adapter at, I think it’s fair to expect them to update it to fix the compatibility issue.
