To turn off a BeadaPanel display when powering down your PC, follow these steps: Short Answer: Edit the animation.ini file in the BeadaPanel's console folder and set the backlight value to 0 to turn off the backlight in standby mode. Full Procedure for Windows Users: Disable Communication: Open AIDA64. Go to File > Preferences > General. Deselect all the checkbox options, click APPLY, and restart your PC. Edit the Configuration File: Download BeadaTools11 from this link. Run BeadaTools11.exe. This will set up a new USB drive in Windows Explorer. If you have multiple BeadaPanel displays, click BeadaTools11.exe again. Open the new drive and locate the animation.ini file in the console folder. Open animation.ini with a text editor (e.g., Notepad) and set backlight = 0. Save the file. Reconnect and Re-enable Communication: Power down your PC and unplug the power cord to exit BeadaPanel's USB mode. Power the PC back on. Re-enable communication with AIDA64: Open AIDA64. Go to File > Preferences > General. Select all checkbox options, click APPLY, and restart your PC. Example of animation.ini File: ; ;Configuration file for BeadaPanel animation playing ; [plano] type = album width = 800 height = 480 keep-aspect-ratio = true backlight = 0 This configuration will turn off the backlight in standby mode. You can adjust other attributes in the animation.ini file to customize your BeadaPanel display.

As of the latest updates, AIDA64 has improved compatibility with RX series GPUs, but issues with GPU monitoring may still persist. The developers have been working on fixing these problems, so it’s worth trying the most recent version of AIDA64 to see if the issue has been resolved. If problems continue, checking the latest release notes or reaching out to AIDA64 support for specific details on RX series support might be helpful.

Update: With the release of AIDA64 v5.90.4200, many of the issues mentioned have been resolved, and the software is now fully compatible with AMD Ryzen processors. You can download the latest version from the following link: AIDA64 v5.90.4200. Resolved Issues: Hardware Detection Issues: A number of minor hardware detection issues have been fixed in the latest beta update, which should provide more accurate readings for your system. Turbo and XFR PStates Visibility: Previously, the Turbo and XFR PStates were not visible on Ryzen processors. While this limitation remains due to the nature of Ryzen’s power states and their reporting, ongoing improvements will continue to refine this aspect. L1 Cache, Memory Bandwidth, and Latency Scores: The L1 cache bandwidth and latency, as well as memory bandwidth and latency, are now accurately measured. L2 and L3 Cache Scores: L2 and L3 cache scores have been updated to reflect the average performance rather than peak performance. This issue is addressed and will continue to be refined. CPU and FPU Benchmarks: Despite some warnings about optimization, the CPU and FPU benchmarks should accurately reflect Ryzen's full potential. Further tweaks to the FPU Julia benchmark may provide additional performance improvements. CPU Hash Benchmark: The CPU Hash benchmark performance on Ryzen is excellent due to the hardware-accelerated SHA instructions. This is expected and showcases Ryzen's enhanced computing capabilities. AM4 Motherboard Support: AM4 motherboards are now supported in the latest stable build. For accurate sensor measurements, please ensure you are using the latest AIDA64 beta build.
