WHY DID THEY USE THAT NASTY THERMAL GEL?!?!?

GIGABYTE AERO GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB GDDR7 PCI Express 5.0 ATX Graphics Card GV-N507TAERO OC-16GD
GIGABYTE AERO GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB GDDR7 PCI Express 5.0 ATX Graphics Card GV-N507TAERO OC-16GD

Pros: - White 5070ti, nothing else needs to really be said - Cooling is really good

Cons: - Nvidia Drivers - Thermal Gel used to help cool components WILL pump out and appear to drip onto Pci-e slot. This is a known issue for any gigabyte card using this thermal gel that is vertically mounted.

Overall Review: Other than what has been said in the cons, the card is great. It handles 4k gaming very well, slight overclocking can push the card to pretty much match a 5080 in performance, temps are fantastic out of the box(never got above 62C), and with fan tuning it never goes above 56C while OC'd and statically set to 70% fan speed, any fan speed below 50% is great in both performance and noise. I can not get over the use of that nasty thermal gel instead of using thermal pads. In less than a month of use, you can see it slightly pumping out above the pci-e slot over a cap. I doubt that this will affect thermals, but it can definitely create an in case mess. This unacceptable for any video card in my opinion.
