Nvidia has expressed confidence that the infamous melting issues with the 12VHPWR power connectors, which plagued some RTX 40-series GPUs, will not recur with its next-generation RTX 50-series lineup.

Since Nvidia has released the RTX 5090 some two years after it started using the 12V-2x6 connector, we can safely assume that overheating power connectors will no longer be an issue. Still, some ...

There have been reports of Nvidia’s graphics card connectors melting for months, but the company might have just found a fix for its super-powered RTX 4090 GPU.

Nvidia’s new RTX 5090 GPUs are experiencing issues with the 12VHPWR power connector melting. It’s similar to reports of RTX 40-series connectors melting.

Nvidia has been quick to wave away concerns that its RTX 5090 flagship graphics card, which consumes close to 600W of power, won’t melt power connectors like its predecessor had a habit of doing.

Nvidia says it’s investigating two reports of RTX 4090 cards that have had power cables burn or melt. Reddit user reggie_gakil was the first to post details about their Gigabyte RTX 4090 issues ...

Nvidia's support was typically better than AMD's, but as someone who used SLI at several points, it was always tetchy. The era of multi-GPU gaming has effectively come to an end -- at least for now.

NVIDIA had multiple PCB prototypes for the GeForce RTX 5090, RTX 4090, and other GPUs: 4 x 16-pin power connectors for up to 2400W power delivery.

PCI Express 2.0 might allow for three-way SLI for the lower end 8600, 8500 and 8400-series of cards, that is if Nvidia will even consider these products worthy of such a setup.

The nForce 200 chip will work with Intel's "Bloomfield" line of Nehalem processors and the accompanying Intel chipset. SLI allows Nvidia to use multiple graphics boards in one system.

A 6+6 pin power connection setup is used on the GTX 980 and GTX 970. The GTX 780 Ti and GTX 780 require a combination of 6+8 pin power connectors. The GTX 780, GTX 780 Ti and Titan have a TDP of ...
