People with 5090 have problem with PCIe 5.0. Try lower it to gen4.0 and see how it behaves.

That's the moddiy's high quality 12+4 pin cable😀 And please don't bash on the 4x8 dongle that follow the cards. That one, will often save the day for those screwed seeing voltage drop/ increaced resistance using their newer shiny high quality custom cables. Exactly the same say all the screwed. It worked perfectly fine until it smelled weird in their room😀 And 5090 will pull 100W extra load compared to 4090. With the same cable. With the modern small PC boxes, expect many (pros and newbies) will twist and bend their cables in all ways to make it fit. Look at this bro @Mr. Fox Fantastic deal? Only 4000 Euro for the 5090. Here he defending the huge price premium because he was able to sell his 4090. 4000 euro = $4125 USD

If it was so easy we would never have seen melted cards or melted PSU's🙂 And Northridge Fix and similar repair shops would have done something else than spend their time repair cards with melted power connectors every week. Because you don't see much of melted 8-pin connectors. They would instead spend more of their time repair failed Jokebooks. Sadly, there is almost no 5090's to buy... I expect we will see more smoke and fire once nvidia can push out more cards than the few houndreds they pushed out before the tax war. Double up of everything has to be double the fun🤪

Yep. On top you get double up with the tiny trash. I prefer the 2x8 pin to 1x Gen 5 and then forget what's connected to the PSU panel. It will sit firmly even with whatever bend needed until I remove it myself. Nothing is more safe to use than the old well proven 8-pins power connectors. And the hook and latch is triple size vs the new and modern. Aka can't get more secure connection🙂

Nvidia have one of the best engineers in the world but still can't do it right. This is just sad. This tiny cute PCB is form over function bro @Mr. Fox Asus didn't have any choice after being the leader in melted 4090's. Hence they created a half baked monitoring solution. You mean double up with tiny trash mini-fit connectors is the way to go? Nope. And even more important to avoid too much cable bends around the PSU panel. People don't open up their PC's one time a week for then open up the box shroud (often screwed down) that cover the PSU to look if everything is fine. Rather they will open up the box if they can smell some smoke. Then it's often too late.

Depends if you live in an area with unstable electricity or not. In areas with huge data centers maybe. It was a topic on the news earlier about this. Huge data centers in some places in US made problems for people living close to. Aka greater chance of early death for electronics. If you haven't had such problems before then the need for such tech is less. Or non-existent.

I would use cables from the PSU manufacturers or the adapter coming with the graphics cards. I expect easier get an RMA this way if something happens. Avoid 3rd party cables/adapters.

I wonder if two melted 12V-2x6 pin connectors smells worse than only one. Sad seeing the stupid tiny connector is also on the PSU panel. Top it up with a custom cable make it triple stupid. Whata flawed design. And what is worse.... Some think double up with stupidity is better Bold claims from MoDDIY. We have sold tens of thousands of our 12VHPWR 16-pin cables and adapters, and there is no melting incident whatsoever, ZERO. This can prove the point that using top-quality materials and parts is always the key to make 12VHPWR products safe and reliable. First melted 5090 show up and it had to be with an custom MoDDIY cable, LOOL

New disgusting ways to promote own trashware... Chrome is bad but I won't switch to Microsoft Edge. Nope. Not in hell. Microsoft click-baits users with useless 'How to Uninstall Microsoft Edge’ instruction doc

O'. my god. The King of newer Jokebooks😀

Hmmm. Isn't it fantastic. AMD won't charge more $$$ for their xx70 tier cards than what Nvidia already can do for 5070Ti and 5070... AMD (F.Azor) is listening, could it launch its graphics cards at a lower price than NVIDIA's. And AMD don't even use the more expensive GDDR7 vram... Hmmm. AMD hints that the RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 could be cheaper than the RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5070

You got lucky. I wish you the very best brother. And Speedy recovery. Take your time and you are back faster than you think.

You can move the memory slider to the moon if you want but nothing works above 34000. Why not let you put whatever memory overclock your graphics card can handle? nvidia being more and more disgusting. Can't remember have seen nvidia have locked you out from add whatever memory overclock you want. What next? And you get even less overclock from the faster 32 Gbps vram.

Tested with anoother GPU? And is this your new Intel 1851 platform?

I'm sure the owners of Intel LGA 1851 platform will appreciate a refresh from Intel with more tops (improved NPU) and maybe a 100MHz clock speed bump up. A small refresh is better than nothing before Intel swap over to a new platform? So enjoy improved TOPS. Now you can finally say your desktop is an real Microsoft Copilot+ PC. Recall (preview) starting early 2025. A lot to look forward to going with the Intel refresh for Arrow lake. This "TOPS" everything you could expect or hope for. Intel Reportedly Considering Resurrection of "Arrow Lake Refresh" Processor Family Today, 17:52 Intel is reported to be eyeing arevival of its "Arrow Lake Refresh" desktop processor design—Golden Pig Upgrade disclosed this "strange" revelation via an updated Weibo blog post. Back in 2023, the Chinese hardware reviewer and leaker extraordinaire theorized that Team Blue's much-rumored shelving of "ARL-S/HX Refresh" came down to cost/benefit considerations relating to accommodating an upgraded NPU in the chip's tile-based design.

Disgusting.

Nice. Maybe it's time to close all doors and throw the keys down the toilet? Or just change the brand name... EVGA closes its popular tech forums, Team EVGA moves to Reddit And here is some goofy news from Asus... And of course. China will always come first. Yup, their influence on tech and buying power is quite remarkable. 3 or 4 days before Asus said nonthing was wrong. Then why push out a new revised PCIe Q-Release Slim solution ? ASUS China confirms improved PCIe Q-Release Slim solution, offers compensation for damaged GPUs

Confirmed by 5090 owner. No settings in NCP. But I need to dig into to see if nvidia have it Enabled by default without we know it. GDDR7 also supports on die ECC (Error Correcting Code). This was interesting. 5090 and the 5070 is the outliers. Maximum GPU Temperature (in C) for 5090 is 90C while 5070 have 85C. 5070 Ti and 5080 have 88C. Hmmm. Why this segmentation? The smaller die for 5070 have bigger risk being fryed to death?

I mean I have never seen it for 4080. Not sure Nvidia have added this function/feature for 5080. But should be for 5090 (should support ECC memory) but where is the settings for that card. Would be nice know if Nvidia have it enabled and people get same problems for 5090. Remember 5090 is more a creator/work card than gamer card due the huge frame buffer and almost full die. GDDR7 run hotter but the vram can still errors out and offer failure in register due the feature.

@Mr. Fox Maybe Hwbot willl/should remove the ECC requirements for4090 now as the ECC settings is most likely gone for 5000 series cards? 5090 will replace all top scores from 4090 on Hwbot https://community.hwbot.org/topic/240549-qjaks-39116-marks-3dmark-port-royal-run-with-geforce-rtx-5090/#findComment-685983 @electrosoft Do yo see any settings in nvidia app/NCP where you can toggle the ECC video memory enabled/disabled? Thanks Try Nvidia Control panel (cpanel) as standalone. Portable version. Click and run. No need for the new, fancy and modern. At least for cards older than 5000 series.

Yes. Wasn't it around 10% ? But still a lot lower than here home. We pay 25% tax on everything. And the 25% tax is added on top of handling and shipping. So People should stop whining of the miniscule added tax😀 TSMC responds to Trump's tariff threat: price hike of all chip wafers by up to 15% TSMC is not going to be intimidated by Trump’s threat, and this wafer price hike is just the first step. Even NVIDIA employees can't get their hands on an RTX 50: "We are outraged by how this launch has been handled" The employee store claims that “due to shortages” there will be no supply of the RTX 50 series until there is “widespread stabilization.” This has never happened before, everyone is confused, and there are a lot of people asking questions, even within NVIDIA, about why we are screwing gamers so much this time…

Sad times. But if taxes/prices increase for US I expect the pressure on 5090 over there will lessen and other countries will get slightly better inventory over time. Maybe not right now but when the hype is cooled a bit. China is hungry for chips so Nvidia can just dump more D branded chips over Asia. Same with real 5090's. They will easly be showled into China they as well. Nvidia don't need US gamers. What we all have to hope for...Nvidia will sell less chips for AI servers. No tree grows to heaven. Better utilizing of GPUs for AI workflow will lower the sales. Just sit down and see Nvidia hit a wall. The profits margins from ROG 5090 Astral cards ain't enough. Here's a new low from Asus. When they can't produce enough cards due the chips shortage from Nvidia, they try increase the ASP the ugly way. Making a gold edition for the rich in Middle East. Well used silicon from Nvidia. ASUS unveils ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5090 Dhahab “Gold” Edition

Maybe the broken software and all weird problems is fixed by then. Yup. Damn disgusting.... With the trashy fragile 12+4 pin mini-fit connectors it's not advised to disconnect then connect the cable several times. One way road to destroy the trashy connector both on the cable and the card. And people will try that first. Yep, you can most likely fully turn of your PSU to fix it but still, no cards with stock firmware should have such behaviour. Seems there have been no time for QC and testing. https://www.overclock.net/posts/29423263/ ::::: https://www.overclock.net/posts/29423381/ Stupid is the new norm.... CPU Ryzen 7 5800X is an fantastic choice as well.

I fix it for you. It's Alienware. It's more like a custom card. If MSI and ASUS can sell 5080's $500 above MSRP.... Why not DELL Alienware?🤩 Gamers need to stop complaining about lack of 5000 series graphics cards. Dell will always be there for you. You could sell the rest of the trash on Ebay. Just put in your old 4060 or even older cards. Many gamers don't know what they buy, so....😀 With nice bling bling and the desktop design they want....

Why not take the chance with an 5080 at Dell?😀 On top you get a "nice" cute SLIMy box with the wwell known AW logo. And you can even buy an 5 years extended Premium warranty. Not even $7K and you'll get an i9 from Intel's latest hybrid chips family. Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 still available in new Alienware Area-51 gaming desktop for $4,449.99 Stock shortages of Nvidia's GeForce RTX 50 series graphics cards are expected to continue for some time. The GeForce RTX 5080 can be picked up inside Dell's new Alienware Area-51 gaming desktop, albeit for a minimum of $4,449.99
