    RTX 5090 FE Molten 12VHPWR

    The problem with all this is that the process takes time—first the connector (the pins) has to degrade, and then it has to melt, because as degradation increases, the temperature rises, and that’s just basic physics. Nvidia created the problem on purpose, so it’s really funny that they’re going...

    RTX 5090 FE Molten 12VHPWR

    Look, like I said, I don’t need Nvidia’s data—we have plenty from the internet—and besides, there’s a whole new industry out there producing so many products just to try to solve this problem. Do you have anything similar for other cables? No? Are there that many experts saying there’s a problem...

    RTX 5090 FE Molten 12VHPWR

    I agree with that—we don’t have any data, so we can only make assumptions. But look, there are some studies (not related to this topic) that show that copper corrosion is at its highest around 70 °C. And guess what—that’s the temperature of the connector during normal operation...

    RTX 5090 FE Molten 12VHPWR

    What you refuse to accept is that Nvidia has absolutely no desire to reveal any real “numbers” to the public. Simply because they don’t want a repeat of the “1080 Ti” situation. The connector is designed to degrade and burn out completely after a few years of use, so it fails under...

    RTX 5090 FE Molten 12VHPWR

    There’s nothing to believe here—the problem started with the RTX 3000 series and is getting worse with every new generation. There’s plenty of information about these issues. If Nvidia wanted to, they could fix it, but I’m not sure they have any desire to do so.

    High-temperature long-term corrosion of copper in aerobic environment Just for the reference. Officially, probably yes, but what goes to unofficial service centers isn't included.

    RTX 5090 FE Molten 12VHPWR

    Yes, he said that in the video, but I’m not talking about unplugging the connector—I’m talking about removing the card from the slot. Look, this “guidance” is given only because the pins shouldn’t move—as I explained above, if the cables aren’t in the “right” position, the contact area will be...

    RTX 5090 FE Molten 12VHPWR

    The problem is that he tests a lot of graphics cards and keeps plugging and unplugging them; this, combined with the pins on the awful 12VHPWR connector—which shouldn’t be moved—is a recipe for melting. With the adapter that comes with the graphics card—the one Nvidia recommends—the pins aren’t...

    Koolance QD3 fittings stuck open

    The problem arises when there’s a mix of copper and aluminum—in that case, you need the “right” coolant, and distilled water can cause issues.And mixing them, as some companies do in order to achieve the “lowest possible price,” always leads to problems. If you’re using only copper, distilled...
