Every cable except for Nvidia’s 8 pin octopus cable adapters are third party. That includes the native 12Vhpwr cables that are coming with high end PSUs.
If the connectors are on the board, and they melt, it’s on the manufacturer that put them on the board, especially since this happened with the last release.
A $2,000 GPU shouldn’t carry the risk of burning your house down.

How is it clickbait when there’s literally pictures of the melted connectors in the article?

I think your comment opened my eyes to my poor reading skills. I was talking about cables not the connector.
