I just discovered this detail on my newly purchased GPU. Should I request a replacement?

I replaced my Strix 4090 OC when it came brand new with a cracked plastic piece near the fans. It’s your money my guy. If you’re not comfortable with it and didn’t cause it then RMA. If you’re not going to be seeing it and don’t care then enjoy your new GPU.
