It looks to me like something was spilled on the computer. It's all over the top of the pump/block too.

That picture is horrifying! I'm shocked it is working. YES, clean it! Get a new AIO water cooler, that is extremely likely to be the source of the problem.Hi, my graphics card is corroding. It still works, should I remove and clean the corrosion? This is my only computer and I can't risk it not working any advice is appreciated.

I mean the source of the corrosion is clearly the leaking AIO block above the card.
I put my bet also to a leaking AIO.

Pretty sure a AIO isn't filled with a yellow colored fluid (look again at the top of the block with Corsair.) Either it's urine from a pet peeing on top of the case or beer was spilled inside.GET THAT WATER COOLER OUTTA THERE, BOI
