    My 4090 Burnt last night not severely I could get it out but no way I’ll ever pin that back in. I smelt it and unplug it right away. I actually kept the heat thermometer gun decided and was checking the temperature all the time it melted at 47 Celsius. I paid an arm and a leg for this card and I am upset severely. There is no way I did not connect up properly. Also watched like a hawk and had tons of support on that video card 2 Brackets to make sure would never move. Make that 51 globally which I believe is BS I’m sure there’s a lot more.

  • @ScottGrammer
    @ScottGrammer 5 месяцев назад +5

    Fun fact: The performance of a working 4080 is infinitely higher than the performance of a DEAD 4090. Why? The 4080's power draw is within the limits of the crummy connector, while the power draw of a 4090 is just too much for it. They need a better connector, or better yet, PSU's, motherboards, and GPU's need a 48V standard.

    The design lacks proper mechanical securing and tolerance for it's intending operating environment and has insufficient safety margins on it's electrical components for the specified current limits. If this had a second clip opposite the first and was spaced to 400wats max and could safely handle bends with 2.3rd or the less the recommended radius it would be doable, just a little less margin for error vs the standard 8 or 6 pin connectors. It was designed to 1st approximation perfect world specs, not the real world.

  • @Cybersawz

    I'm curious if the wire gauge inside the cable is too large, or thin. That would absolutely create a lot of heat when the GPU draws power.
    Perhaps, a thicker gauge wire would rectify this issue.
    I can see the company who makes this cable trying to cut costs to the bone for increased profits.

    For me here can be also a problem from the overclocking side, i see a lot of people using msi without knowing shit and giving to the card 20% of wattage, more wattage, more heat and the cable can't handle it, and it's not only the cable but the connector himself, on long period usage with 600w on it will melt for sure, if a cpu with a cooling sistem and large surface with 300w is going 90C imagine a connectore with 500+w with no direct cooling, on long period it will melt

    its like using only 1 or 2 8pin connectors on previous power hungry flagship cards,
