 |  PCI-SIG calls out GPU chipmakers over flaming plugs Nvidia*Dracarys* The Peripheral Component Interconnect Special Interest Group [PCI-SIG] has waded into companies like Nvidia for peddling products with the 16-pin 12VHPWR power connector, such as Nvidia's GeForce RTX 4090. In a statement to members which was sent to the press, the group stated, "one manufacturer has reported to PCI-SIG potential safety issues with its use of the 12VHPWR connection." It mentions an ongoing lawsuit, Genova v. Nvidia Corporation, which alleges that the 16-pin cables are "melting … posing a serious electrical and fire hazard." https://fudzilla.com/news/pc-hardwar...-flaming-plugs |
