Hey, it looks like you found a GPU with some signs of wear. It’s not uncommon for used GPUs to have minor issues like leaks or grease. Just check if the problem affects performance and consider cleaning it gently if needed.

They seem to be from thermal pads, which should be fine.

It’s just leftover thermal pad material or extra solder resin. In either case, there’s nothing to worry about.

Ensure the surface is dry, removing any residue or smudges before proceeding.
