[SOLVED] RTX 3080 backplate issue

[hadiahmed29]

Hi guys,

So i recently bought RTX 3080 its been more than a month that i have this GPU but i noticed these spots on my gpu im attaching the pictures it looks like that it melted a bit or something
The temperatures are always under 50 degrees since its not that hot as of now.
What could be the possible reason is it because of the heat or what ?
And should i be worried regardless of the temps being low.

Looks like its been dropped to me.
It is really hard to bend metal by melting it, a PCB couldnt possibly do that.

Dropped or hit by something.
You should be worried.
Its a peace of metal after all..

Yeah that's what im amazed that how can a card that is under 50 degrees all the time can melt metal.
What should i do ?

Hahahahahahaha Thats the only thing im doing right now
I was actually going for a decent cooler but the guy said that i was wasting money on it since im not gonna overclock it.
plus i had to pay 300$ extra for the card so it was already out of my budget.

How much did you pay for that beauty?
What cpu do you have?

Around 1400$ for RTX 3080 and Intel core i7 10700 non k
Also i don't get it that if their is so much heat why didn't it burn something else why the backplate i mean the plastic melting makes sense but why this.
Also the tempered glass on the side where it melted isn't even hot like it just doesn't sit right with me

As i said, probably isnt a burn, but a fall or damage while shipping.
Anyhow, you should'nt worry, since its just a peace of metal.

Thanks for the assurance man will do get it check though soon or if the melting area increases
Thank you so much
