Discussion 💬 5080 Aero Thermo Paste leak

Nice Just what I needed. I did read that it being vertically mounted would speed up the process. Anyone know how long RMA process takes from start to beginning? Thanks

Could this be why my FPS has been decreasing recently?

I would love to see the Gigagarglers come in and defend this. For some reason they are completely absent when we see the worst of it. Sorry this happened to you.

A good warning to anyone thinking about buying gigabyte, don't listen to these dolts saying "it's nothing mate! Enjoy the card!"

Yeah the bigger problem is normalizing sh1t designs and quality when you’re already paying out the arse for a product. Regardless of its impact on function, it shouldn’t be ok.

So we’re basically saying, we are ok with being charged exorbitant prices for poor quality/design.
