X800XL - and the three magic LED`s under its HSF

[BlingBlingArsch]

Hi,

the x800xl is a great card. And some reviews mention in short that Club3d offers theirs with white LEDs right under the cooler. A buddy of mine bought one - couple of days ago - and we was surprised to find three blue LEDs on the board, and they start flickering once we we have passed the POST, eg after booting to Windows XP pro SP2. So, if anyone can give further information like how to know which models come with white or blue lights and if the flickering light is "normal" or should it be a constant light? Do other manufacturers have similar models? Iam not sure. maybe a poll? thx.
