LEDs are needed, because it is easy to determine the performance of the raiser from them. But the best resolving for video cards and raisers is the black insulating tape. 2 layers will save you from any light. But if the video cards are in a ventilated case, then the LEDs should not interfere.
But they obviously do interfere which is why I asked the question to begin with

They are, but not a frickin night clubs worth of lights. Only lights I care to see (if any for that matter) is a single power and status light, ethernet lights (those are actually dim), and maybe a dim status light on the riser (prefer non at all though)
They make riser without LED's:
The 009S risers only have a small 12V and 3.3V LED, not the obnoxious disco LEDS's the newer risers have.

The 006 risers have no LED's at all.

THANK YOU!!! This is EXTREMELY helpful!
The same with LEDs of GPUs and motherboards. Some GPUs for example 5700xt from Sapphire has a way to turn off using software but a lot of them for example RadeonVII I am unable to. It would be nice to have no lights whatsoever in mining rig except the one that is on ethernet port.
And why? I don´t understand this problems with the LED´s. Is it danger for your eyes? You sitting the whole day in front of your rig and watch how it runs?
It's a problem when I am trying to sleep. I have a small home with very limited space where I can keep my tech stuff so I had to settle by sticking the rig in the closet (and keeping it open so it doesnt burn up). Once we move outta this place, this LED issue wont matter as much
