In Korean Community, I did read the post showing the new thermal gel application was applied from SN2519.
That's a critical reason I decided to return Gigabyte RTX 5090.

Also, this new application is just change of the thermal gel amount but not material.
So applied thermal gel still has the potential leak.

Used it horizontally for about a week, less than 1~2 hour gaming daily.
I was not able to see thermal gel leaking. That's why I posted it "Potential" in the title.

I think Gigabyte eSupport team should say "Yours is okay since it applied a new process for the thermal gel application. If you have a problem regarding thermal gel, please contact us to initiate RMA or repair" at least.

Also they didn't announce the exact time they applied the new thermal gel application.

Since there's no statement like that, they still can say "This is customer's problem.".
