Posted October 25, 2021 Is this IO shield rusting? GPU was bought in Mid 2020 and has seen 2 monsoons. Ports and PCB seems fine to me. Only the IO shield and the screw surface is rusting. Also the rust can be seen only with a Mobile phone torchlight(dual tone) and not with a normal regular torchlight (white) AMD Ryzen 7 5700X Stock B550 Aorus Elite V2 Rev1.2 G.Skill TridentZ RGB 3600Mhz 32gb (8gb x4) MSI Mech 2X RX6600 Deepcool AK620 WH Deepcool CK500 WH Kingston A2000 250gb + WD Blue 1tb HDD, Sn550 1tb + MX500 1000gb Antec EAG Pro 750 80+G Benq Mobiuz EX2510 144Hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 25, 2021 as long as the PCB looks fine i wouldn't worry about it. I have a GTX 750ti with the same issue, seems to be a thing on certain GPU's. -Phoenix- -VouwFabriek- -SolidNAS- BlackMac Woody Clack Virtuality Lil'Lad Plot-Device Boerderij all your proteins are belong to us.

I am actually worried about the warranty. Performance seems fine or unaffected. Since Zotac's warranty is kind of strict here in my country.
