So as the title says I have a green spot on the bottom of the card that is the yellow part that locks the card,here is the picture so you be the judge http://postimg.org/image/4ob8v1h69/ .The graphic card works great by the way its just that green part where the arrow is pointing, I don't know if it was there the first time I installed it, but after I got it out of my case it looked liked that.My pcie slot from the motherboard is blue so it may be a mix from blue and yellow, a consequence of overheathing maybe?
Thanks in advance

I guess it came like that from the factory.

Nothing to worry about anyways. And no, its not from overheating or anything else.

Well that's the problem I didn't checked the bottom part the first time I put it in my case,i was so excited I didn't checked anything I just put it in my case as fast as possible.So im not sure if it was there before or after.

That part is just to lock the card in the tab on the motherboard slot. It doesn't interface with any contacts or connectors. It doesn't matter what color it is.

I know that that part doesent matters but isn't it obvious my pcie slot of the motherboard is blue and the bottom part of the gpu is yellow and if you mix blue and yellow you get green.So im thinking that my pc is heaving overheating problem or my graphic is having I don't know.
