I don't think so.... PSU brands own forums isn't filled up with burned up connectors as with the CM adapters. Even CableMod said the failure rate on their custom vanilla 12VHPWR cables was almost none. Aka totally opposite to the angled adapters disaster. Either a massive QC problems with the adapters or they are made wrong. Trash is still trash bro Fox. But add more failur points to the same fragile and thiny 12VHPWR connector is bad. Or just plain stupid. I won't touch any of their angled adapters. And with the HOF you have two connectors aka less chance for the smoke and fire... I still don't want them. And the best part. With a big box you shouldn't be afraid for bendgate. I rather sit still in my plaza watching the failure rate go on and go on. What is a day without the usual Adapter smoke and I can enjoy my good smokin cigars, LOOL Edit. I get 1 file would exceed the total allowed size of 5.338kB, and have to drop post pict the last couple of days. Have I used up the limited places for pict/images on the forum? I have to take pict from my OC.net post to be able to post pict directly. I don't bother with pict sharing sites. The pict tend to disappear after a while. This is from an thread I follow on Igorslab. He have been very quiet the last 5 weeks about this problem. Maybe because Igorslab really haven't found the real problem. And Igor Wallosek support CableMod so....

All you gain with the slight redesign is that the 12V-2x6 connector will be backwards compatible with12VHPWR connectors. + a few less cases with burned up graphics cards. But this don't eliminate the major problem. This is almost as put "lipstick on a pig". Its still a pig. Pig or plug, does it matter, HaHa 16-Pin Power Connector Gets A Much-Needed Revision, Meet The New 12V-2x6 Connector Too expensive and too much work make a brand new connector (Most of PSU manufacturers have already done the design and launched their new shiny overpriced ATX 3.0 PSUs). You like bad jokes bro @Mr. Fox?🤔

Not more to say.... And probably not bro @Mr. Foxfirst choice either. And here is another Pc build you also should avoid at all costs.....

Same old 13900K. Only God knows. But I have only seen 1 or two orginal 12VHPWR cables burn up the last 5 weeks. My best guess... CableMod will never ever release the real melting numbers... So maybe 2 vs 60++++(CM adapters as the latter). Finally some smart engineers. Sligh redesigned PSU compatible with ATX3.0 and PCIe5.0 standards.... But with real 8pins connectors on the PSU side of the 12VHPWR cable. So there is still hope in humanity bro @Mr. Fox But Corsair should have offered two of the 12VHPWR cables and not only one. HX1500i isn't exactly a cheapo made products. It comes with 10 years warranty. Put in a second 12VHPWR cable, please.

Google up their support page. I'm sure you find something there. Now its MSI turn to say no to 3rd party adapters/cables as offered by CableMod. And I expect the graphics cards serial-nr is registered in their database after your first try to RMA. In short you will be banned from RMA your cards as long nvidia don't come up and force their AIC partners to accept fix the smoked/burned cards. Yep, your card will loose some value in the second hand market. Nice. I wouldn't buy a 1.5 years old car without any warranty. But that's me. Maybe other thinks different. CableMod adapter melted RTX 4090. MSI not accepting RMA. What next? And CableMod will never ever bother with your card again if you need send in you grapics cards that fail out in other tasks than burning up with their adapters 🙂 In short.... Their warranty can be useless. But they got your money for the failed angled 12VHPWR adaper. I hate bad deals.

More points for @PremaHwbot team 🙂 https://hwbot.org/submission/5303804_papusan_3dmark___fire_strike_extreme_geforce_gtx_970_6946_marks 3rd one for the day, LOOOL Another Angled Adapter Melted

Vanilla 13900K out from the box. Haven't tuned in the cpu after the latest bios update. Neither have I tuned the cpu for 3DM Fire Strike. Just testing the new old card 🙂 https://hwbot.org/submission/5303752_papusan_3dmark___fire_strike_geforce_gtx_970_14145_marks https://hwbot.org/submission/5303747_papusan_3dmark___fire_strike_extreme_geforce_gtx_970_6879_marks Second one in a row. Maybe CableMod should ship with a free nose clip with the adapters, HaHa If so.... Would you use it bro @electrosoft while you gaming?😆 Another melted adaptor - you'll know it's melting from the god awful smell

There is a major difference between latest Intel vs AM5 chipset. With Intel you can't have it both. It's either full PCIe 5.0 support for GPU or capped. So no point have a dedicated gen 5 M.2 ssd slot for etc gen 5 ssd's. Can't see Asus have made much wrong here with their OC board. More stupid.... Thanks to Nvidia. And yep... Asus out with great ideas Asus Flaunts GeForce RTX 4060 Ti with M.2 Slots for SSDs Like many other midrange GPUs these days, Nvidia's AD106 graphics processor only has eight PCIe 4.0 lanes since 15.754 GB/s raw bandwidth provided by eight PCIe lanes is enough for modern GPUs, and eight extra PCIe lanes take too much precious die space NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 PCI-Express Scaling Useless. All you should care about is the random read write 4k. The high sequential bragging numbers.... How often to you need server functionality on a consumer pc? And do people really need the fancy and modern CM angled adapters? Why not just buy a big enough PC box? Hmmmmm You even get an nice short video of the burning disaster . 2 July 2023 Posted 1 hour ago Melted adapter and soldered to the GPU connector

Yep, I mean old fashion legacy mode where you can chose if you etc want go into Win safe mode or do other tasks. Use same F8 key command on a OC board is damn stupid. They could have changed this for many years ago if they wanted. Can't be that difficult. But they have followed same stupid trend as Microsoft's stupid software engineers. You need do CMD tweaks to have the chance to go into Win leagacy boot menu after coold bot. Microsoft want that you use their crazy new modern way to access it. I hate it when so called smart engineers make useless changes. Yep, Microsoft treat their desktop OS as a smartphone OS nowadays (maybe the kids demand it or want it, I don't know). And worse it will be. Be you sure! https://winbuzzer.com/2020/06/16/how-to-disable-or-enable-f8-safe-mode-legacy-advanced-boot-options-in-windows-1-xcxwbt/

I know, but what if you want go into secure mode from cold boot? And Asus cater to oc’ers who try many tweaks. Stupid is the normal. Or maybe I have missed? Punch F8 and you get the Asus way. Why in hell use F8 for firmware options? Why not another key combo? I opened up the baby HOF. Bad paste job. Not sure if this is from the previous owner or Galax. Temps is quite good but the job is bad

How do you come into old fashion Win secure mode with F8 when the stupids at Asus use that command for their MB firmare?

But new has to be better, LOOOL 1.5 years down the road.... Mama.... Mama, why have I problem with the gaming in 1080P? I got the 4060 as you know from you.... You have to fix it😆 My games stutter and I need a new card. No my son.... You got exactly what Nvidia promised.... Just reduce the eye candy if you absoluetly need new buy games.

So you won't be happy with a rand0m refurbished 4090 with a 90 day warrenty(if you are lucky and Asus feel for it)? Yep, you get a refurbished card but your orginal Asus warranty is lost forever. Aka you are doomed to use the CM adaper forever. But here's the other side of the coin.... Will CableMod offer help when you run into other problems (no smoke and fire) as etc a dead ADA chips or dead mem chips? Or even a failed power delivery. What with blackscreens that isn't from their adapters? Do You Feel Lucky if you go the angled CM route? Maybe this can answer it 🙂 Posted 8 hours ago My ASUS 4090 port melted and I feel cornered. And what if he sell his 4090 for another card? The new owner if his Asus card won't get any warranty. Thats the other side of the coin with the adapter. Here home we have 5 years warranty and the new owner get the same rights. Nice. I hate being screwed. And I always do my due diligence

Bro @Mr. Fox. Maybe you want 3090 ti HOF OC Lab Limited Edition? Yep not the newest cards from current gen but come with a nice Asus Strix OC 4090 price tag. The elite or chosen one want some cash back after the promotion and points. Remember this is the Limited Edition Card where only 100 were made. This one is number 4. so close to nr 1. Maybe youfinally have the chance to feel how the elite have it. Nice to have the chance to feel being privileged. Only $2185USD. Hope you don't need to pay for the shipping. and you ebven get a nice suitcase. You may have to pay for everything. Maybe send the bill to your employer 🙂 One thing for sure.... If you are the elite or the chosen one. You don't pay a dime. Smell on it... Only for yooo. I feel I have a better chance in a normal ordinary lottery. Galax 3090 ti HOF OC Lab Limited Edition #4/100 (GREECE) https://community.hwbot.org/topic/225960-galax-3090-ti-hof-oc-lab-limited-edition-4100-greece/

Good news for the leather-jacket man. People just love their new overpriced scam. 4060 is in reality a 4050 card. But one stupid is one too much. He should rather stay in the bed. Again, only one person shows up to buy GeForce RTX 4060 series GPU at launch in Japan This is disgusting! You like it disgusting bro @ryan? Or is this just a bad joke from Jensen? Bro @Mr. Foxyou are not the only one that don't like AMD graphics cards. Now we are 3😆 Edit. Back to the old 🙂 https://hwbot.org/submission/5303257_papusan_gpupi___1b_geforce_gtx_970_27sec_764ms?recalculate=true

Yep, and it was a very expensive failure. 9000$ here and and all HW was welded on the MB. No wonder it was in limited edition. Too expensive and E-waste.

Disable Hpet in the tools box in the Gpupi software. Should reboot automatically afterwards. And don’t use the legacy version with newer HW. The scores will be lower😉

A couple of test results from the GTX 970. It seems I need another vbios. I need to see what to get. What I have I think is too new. But okish results. Around 1600 on the cores. https://hwbot.org/submission/5302942_papusan_gpupi_v3.3___1b_geforce_gtx_970_22sec_52ms?recalculate=true https://hwbot.org/submission/5302939_papusan_gpupi___1b_geforce_gtx_970_28sec_308ms?recalculate=true

If you click the boost feature button on the I/O backplate, that will disable any OCP/OVP and enable max fans without the need for software. How can this be so difficult to do for other graphics cards flagship? You get it even with the much cheaper x/x70 series cards. Here below you can see the difference between the old button design and the one for the newer cards. Now you get green light when you have enabled it. I would be happy whatever design if that was implemented for all brands cards. Very nice that Galax continue with such features and don't follow the new modern trend (removing everything that cost them slightly more money). Removed some dust. Very easy to do properly with an eletrical dust cleaner. A must have. Yep, dual PSU is worth its weight in gold 🙂

Gpu tweak is a good software from Asus. The only software that can let you adjust voltage on a few older AMD and Nvidia graphics cards. And for most brands cards. Totally opposite vs many other OC tools. Msi Afteburner and Evga software can’t do this. Neither the other brands crap graphics OC tools. So you was spot on. But how long was Adam in paradise? Maybe they kill that software as well. Nothing will last fantastic forever. Everything shall be dumbed down. All in one package that will be riddled with bugs that will never be fixed.

Yep. MSI should go back to the old days and start with Lightning cards. And they shouldn't cost much more than their Suprim X models. Aka much cheaper option than Asus and Galax. There is nothing special with the PCB and the power components on Asus Strix OC cards. They are pretty vanilla as other flagship cards. Not even close to the HOF cards. But if you can get a HOF they shouldn't be much more expensive than the Strix OC. And you get more for around same amount money. Asus couldn't even add two 12VHPWR connector on their new Matrix 4090 flagship. Neither managed a nice feature as force max fans/power limit with a physical button on the GPU I/O shield. Just more bling, better bin and the fancy AIO with improved software/monitoring IC for (Telemetry). Almost as a jazzed up Strix OC but for more $$$$$. They all will still have the same problems. The bin quality is a lottery. And will be. Not what you really pay for. You pay the extra for the bling factor, name and somewhat better cooling. And a couple extra power phases you really don't need. I accept pay 300$ extra for a high end card. But it has to be the best of the best. Nothing more or nothing less. Best bin, best, cooling and best PCB.

Btw. When we first have talked about Asus.... The usual daily damage. Posted 3 hours ago Asus 4090 OC + EKWB + ABP + Cablemod 180 Type A + Cablemod custom Cable

When I talked about overbuilt. Asus GTX 970 Strix OC cooling Asus GTX 970 come with Single 8 pin. And the bigge bro Asus GTX 980 Strix OC use 8+6 pin Galax GTX 970 HOF cooling 970 HOF come with dual 8 pin and a hell lot better PCB and power delivery.
