The RTX 4090 12-pin cables (12VHPWR connectors) have been within the information for burning, melting, and the theories surrounding them for a number of weeks now. We ran our first take a look at piece early as a result of we had been at a stage the place we would have liked extra cables from viewers — we obtained some! With the assistance of our viewers sending in a number of failed cables, we had been capable of attain 3 agency conclusions (or, actually, 2+1) of causes for failures of those adapter cables (and unadapted ones, too). In fact, there could also be much more causes — however we consider these 3 to be the first ones. Between international object particles in manufacturing (appears unusual, however a trigger) and consumer error, we had been capable of make a number of cables soften. On the consumer error entrance, bear in mind one key factor: Even when yours does not begin totally unseated and is simply partly unseated, it might probably work its approach unfastened over time when you transfer cables round, do some cleanup, transfer the system, and so forth.
