Now you’re really showing how uniformed you are. It’s not an extension cable, it’s 20cm in length total which is significantly shorter than what comes with standard 12Vhpwr native PSUs at 60-70cm.
There wasn’t even anything wrong with the minifit jr 8 pin pcie connectors, the official spec of 150W massively derated. If Nvidia really wanted to cap the number of plugs and not change any specs then the 8 pin EPS connectors are rated at 288W.
Interesting that it lasted two years with their 4090 with no ill effects. Even though the 5090 is higher power draw, I would suspect the contact resistance of the cable was causing heating even before, just not enough to smell or deform the connectors.
I haven’t really had much issue with it beyond the first bit of getting my pebblebee tags to switch from their network to Google’s. They didn’t want to ring until I paired them twice.
The functionality to stay on a specific version or downgrade is already available on a per game basis if the game devs want to implement it, but it would be great to make it available by default.
Except in this instance the bar is the meme and you can’t stop the Nazis from using it no matter what you do. Even if you move on to some other meme they can just as easily follow you, now no one knows what’s acceptable or not and for how long.
Looks like he made a follow up and apology video. Hopefully he’s serious and actually follows up since it sounds like he’s taking the ban and his father reaching out to him as a wake up call.
Cuda? I wouldn’t be surprised, but AMD’s ROCm is much less developed (but works).
