Well…I mean…that’s kind of bound to happen when you draw 600W into a device that size I suppose. I feel like they’ve had this issue with every *090 card, whether it be cables or otherwise.

Yeah my 3090 K|ngP|n pulls over 500w easily, but that’s over 3 8 pin PCIe cables, all dedicated. Power delivery was something I took seriously when getting that card installed, as well as cooling. Made sure my 1300w PSU had plenty of dedicated PCIe ports.
