You found a small mark near the processor area on your new Steam Deck. The fan isn’t spinning too fast, and the game runs smoothly, so it might be something harmless. It could be dust or residue, but it’s not urgent—just keep checking occasionally.

It's not a burn mark, it is oil from thermal pads. It's completely safe and nothing to worry about.

It doesn’t resemble a burn mark. This appears to be thermal pad oil or grease that may leak gradually. It’s not dangerous or harmful.
