[SOLVED] Small dings/scratches top plate of MSI Suprim X 3080

Hi guys, just purchased my first GPU and I noticed there were some minor scratch/dings on the top plate of the card.. know its just totally cosmetic and doesn't hurt the card obviously, but are these types of things normal w/ graphic cards?

I have purchased hundreds of GPUs and when they are new they are in pristine condition.
That will be normal for open boxes or used units

I agree, it should have been perfect, without any damage, cosmetic or not.

It might have been a returned card and the previous owner might have not been too careful with it. You should inform MSI about this.
