RGBFusion2.0 installer 253 MB.
When installing and uninstalling the program, it says that it takes 170MB.
In fact, 2 utilities are needed there, and as I understand it, the 2nd one used to be separate, and then became a plugin for the first one. 0.5GB is the total weight of the installers.
That is, you must first install the aorus engine so that it installs RGB fusion. If you install RGB Fusion separately, it doesn't work for some reason. Moreover, with this utility installed separately, aorus engine will not install it. Such crap...

I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
I have a Gigabyte card like this too. I'm pretty sure you can install the software, use it, then uninstall it and the light settings will remain (not really the content of this thread, I know).
When I mentioned .25GB for React, I was mostly talking about the total size of files it added to my node_modules directory. The "installer" was technically only a few MB, the compressed files it downloaded might have been (guessing) 50MB, but after unpacking all of them to text files, and using up a zillion inodes, and creating directory structures you need a rope and a torch to explore, the end effect is a lot more than the initiator.
I think it'd be benefitial to talk about all these things separately (size of download, size of installation, amout of resources uses when running) because if the installation process only downloaded the files it needed, and everything else was run with libraries existing on the system, then that would be... great? Right? But you can have an application which behaves that way during installation and turns out to chew its way through all your available RAM when running, for example. And these things are different, and if they were the responsibility of different actors, they might be better optimised?

This is a similar topic, but I think that you are right and it is better to consider it separately, since my page will not withstand as many comments of such a discussion 😁
There's no need to install a 500MB application to turn off RGB lighting. A piece of electrical tape works wonders. It's non-conductive and comes in a variety of colors with black being the most popular.
I use painters tape, electrical tape, and even the sticky part of sticky notes to cover up the blindingly-bright LEDs that all modern technology gadgets seem to come with. Depends on how much light I want to let through that decides which route I go with to cover up the LEDs. When I want nothing showing, electrical tape gets used to great effect.
Using electrical tape for such purposes is an incredible bullshit, I'd rather install 0.5 GB of software. My video card is not 4090, of course, but that's how much you have to disrespect your hardware to do such things with it.

Here I can support you, I would not do such "modifications" with my hardware, in my opinion it is "village custom". But for someone a PC is just a working machine, then this is quite an effective option.

500 MB is about the weight of Windows 2000 installation files, in which there is "a little" more functionality 🙃
Can't you physically disconnect the RGB cable?
In my case, the card must be disassembled for this.
It would suck to lose the warranty.
It's a pity... on some of them, the wire can be traced and unhooked without unscrewing a single screw.
