Well it does seem to be a common occurrence for cards from certain manufactures from what people experience.

https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comme...phics_card_pcb/ . Same model here in the picture Zotac 1060.

Its not "normal" for them to leak, its just not really a problem. The occurence of thermal pad leaks is probably less than 1 in 3 or 1 in 4 gpu's in this space, and almost entirely related to heat cycling and/or exposure to higher heat levels (70c+ as an example). It also seems prevalent in certain manufacturers. EVGA, ASUS, and Gigabyte all seem to encounter this "issue" more commonlly, however, do not exhibit such signs if kept "cool" (62c or less) with a fairly consistent temperature range. Conversely, I've never even seen an MSI card that was remotely taken care of exhibit the same leakage. Not to say that MSI is better, I think it just speaks to EVGA, ASUS, and GIgabyte using a different material for their thermal pads all together. EVGA especially since their cards are far and beyond the most common leaks.
I read some sources that it might be grease from the fan too. The original fan died and I replaced it with a new one as mentioned in my post.

They are from your fluid sleeve bearings from your dying GPU fans. Once it dries out, you sill start hearing louder noise from your fans. This will then develop to grinding on the bearings and eventually the fan failing.


Maybe your's is the case where the heat pipes cracked, where the oil is covering almost the entire card like in this picture sweat.gif Attached Image

Tat is the oil/flux to protect pcb/soldering which is clearly showing on ur pcb board, u may go check how tech repair gpu in utube , thy will put on tat layer on pcb which mean if the card has tat kind of oil/flux most probably hv bad overheat issue . New gpu wont hv tat oil on pcb board for sure , it is up to buyers / viewers to make decision

Yes, of course GPU fresh from the factory won’t have the oil.

But most people here are selling used GPUs at used prices.

As for overheating, I have not experienced any issues / crashes while under load. Hence the 1 week personal warranty for the buyer to test the card under load so that the buyer is satisfied that everything is in working condition smile.gif

The higher running temps (but still below Nvidia's temperature limit) of this model itself is inherent to its design - miniaturized heatsink and single fan. https://www.techpowerup.com/review/zotac-ge...ni-3-gb/33.html

FYI I sold this exact same card a few years back and looking back at the picture, it also had the the oil spots.

I did not receive any complaints from the previous buyer so make that of what you will wink.gif
