@ 2022/10/27Pizza which is too hot and spicy
The GPU maker named after a Roman pizza, with potatos and sausages, apparently has a problem with the 600W power socket and cable on its RTX graphics cards.
Users have reported overheating issues and posted pictures on the world wide wibble which show a 12VHPWR power cable that had melted where it plugs into their RTX 4090. The cable feeds power from the PC's PSU into the GPU card.
The Redditor said that the power connector appeared to be the issue since the card still worked despite the damage sustained.
