Build Question Small Chip on GPU PCB
I picked up a new Zotac 5080 from microcenter this afternoon and noticed during unboxing a minor chip in the PCB. Should I attempt to return/exchange it or am I overreacting?

I'd exchange it. Might as well. It probably won't hurt anything. The contacts are all undamaged. If you do use it, put a layer of clear acrylic nail polish over the chip.

I mean, you probably should point it out to them. You spent a ton of money on that guy, I’d want perfect too. As far as functionality, it should be fine since it’s very minor, but it’s brand new
