    A ‘concerning’ RTX 5090 power connector discovery.

    I covered the RTX 5090 melting power connector situation yesterday, and I was surprised at the amount of people quick to blame “user error” for someone using a third-party cable. YouTuber der8auer has now examined one of the burnt cables, and he’s found that this isn’t user error and could be related to a current distribution problem instead. Nvidia still hasn’t commented on the situation.
