The RTX 5090<\/a> and RTX 5080<\/a> are power hungry beasts, but the first report of a melting power connector was actually caused by an RTX 4090, likely due to an improperly seated power cable.<\/p>\n

Hong Kong media outlet PCM initially reported that its testing of an RTX 5090D<\/a> and RTX 5080 resulted in melted cables, with a picture of two 600 W 12VHPWR connectors looking worse for wear.<\/p>\n

However, the outlet later clarified that a clear burn mark was present on the back of an RTX 4090<\/a>, while the RTX 50-series cards appeared unscathed (via Videocardz<\/a>). That suggests user error when installing the power connectors on the RTX 40-series card, evoking memories of the whole Meltgate debacle regarding melting power connectors<\/a> on the RTX 4090’s initial release.<\/p>\n

The original 12VHPWR power connector was blamed for overheating and melting under heavy workload due to improper seating, before Nvidia switched to a revised 12V-2×6 connector<\/a> with shorter sensing pins and longer conductor terminals which was less prone to incorrect installation.<\/p>\n

Since then, several cable manufacturers have also released angled connectors<\/a> that put less stress on the connection point when wrangled into a tight case, while MSI has gone one step further and released a yellow-tipped cable<\/a> to make it clearer when a power connector is correctly installed.<\/p>\n

If you see yellow, don’t be mellow. Something like that, anyway. Still, it looks like PCM has fallen victim to a slightly misaligned cable connection on the older card, and paid the smoking-hot connection price.<\/p>\n

As we found in our testing, the RTX 5090 is a particularly thirsty card, drawing up to 637 W peak power under a 4K native Metro Exodus torture test. Still, we’ve had no issues with the power connector even at those lofty power draw heights, although we did experience a lot of coil whine using a Seasonic Prime TX 1600 W PSU.<\/p>\n

However, this was mostly mitigated by swapping the power supply out for a 1600 W EVGA model, and the card has performed pretty much flawlessly otherwise.<\/p>\n

So while there’s a fair bit to critique the RTX 50-series for currently (not least that they’re expensive, and difficult to find in stock<\/a> even if you can stump up the cash), melting power connections don’t seem to be an issue so far. Let’s hope it stays that way, too.<\/p>\n
