E-mailed UBT inquiring about GPU Palit warranty and they told me warranty is void if GPU has serious rust or suffered from oxidation because of humidity, even kahit sa holding metal plate (or kung ano man yung tawag dito) lang ng i/o ports. Kung ganun nga, then karamihan ng GPU dito satin sa Pinas would suffer some kind of oxidation / rust because of humidity.
Any advise mga sirs?

palit is one of the products that is very weak when it comes to corrosion, unlike giga and aorus which UBT also caters, if you have one, much better have it repaired na lang if someone can and avoid palit kahit minsan kasi close case tapos lagi kang naglilinis wala pa din talaga as per my experience, kaya siguro mura sila when it comes to PC parts -

Hindi ba kaya tanggalin yung metal ng I/O ports then babad mo sa vinegar for a day to remove rust? Para presentable pag dinala sa UBT. Pero problem lang kung magdahilan na kung pati board meron na corrosion. Hindi mo naman makikita unless binuksan and ma-void talaga warranty. Pero kung kaya silipin check mo kung meron sa board and kung wala naman, take a chance to return it.
Kung prone talaga sa oxidation location mo, switch brands na... I believe yung Asus has stainless steel for the metal I/O port so you can consider it sa next purchase. At least kahit sa I/O malinis. Pero you have to find a more permanent way to fix the humidity sa room kung saan ka gamit ng PC para maiwasan talaga.
Last resort is to have it repaired at your own cost. Or try mo DIY. Di naman ganun kahirap magbukas ng GPU. I recently got a corroded RX 6800 and flickering yung isang DP port. Opened it and found that the board is too dusty. I thoroughly deep cleaned the board with 99% Alcohol then changed thermal paste and thermal pads and okay na ulit. -
^Agree. Sa ngayon ok yung condition card except dun nga sa metal bracket, saka nga siguro yung inner parts, no idea sa condition. Yung bracket hindi matanggal unless baklasin buong GPU. Also tried contacting Palit themselves, pero rejected din yung appeal ko. Pero debatable naman yung rust sa case ko, pero siguro avoid na nga lang Palit

Agree last resort na siguro ang Palit sakin next time -
Mga master, ask ko lang kung sino distributor ng Razer headset here sa pinas? I need to claim warranty for my barracuda x wireless headset na nagka prpblem. TIA!
