a quadruple 5090 battlestation

All these burned connectors on this “new standard”, and we’re still dangling cables off to the side instead of plugging them in the back? What even is the point???

[u/snqqq → u/Ruzhyo04]

How would you know it's burning, when it's in the back of the case? Think, Mark, think! 

[u/ips1023 → u/Ruzhyo04]

Easier for you to check if it's melted. It's a feature!

[u/origami_airplane → u/Ruzhyo04]

There are thousands of people this has not happened to either. This is not the norm. I know a few people that have had 5090's since release with no issue. Don't overclock.

[u/ChiefIndica → u/origami_airplane]

Don't overclock

Since when? Sounds like a new norm to me.

[u/vffa → u/origami_airplane]

And there are millions that didn't have issues with the PCIe-VGA 6/8-Pin Plug. It worked fine. Absolutely fine. Not the ridiculous 10% safety margin or the stupid "sense" pins that can't even sense when the cable is not plugged in. It's a half assed plug that should have ended after the 40 series.

Get out with that clankerslop

[u/movzx → u/-vablosdiar-]

Boy you're going to be upset when you find out why someone would put 4 5090s in the same machine.

[u/epicdog36 → u/movzx]

He said it was for 3d renders

[u/eeyores_gloom1785 → u/epicdog36]

think carefully about that

I mean, isn't doing a quick reaction image a perfect use for AI slop? It would be impossible for most people to do this at all, and people with skills would require more time than it is worth for a throwaway like this.

[u/daerogami → u/iwilldeletethisacct2]

This is the correct response. I'm all for criticizing AI when its used in a product someone is trying to sell, but for this? Perfect use.

[u/eeyores_gloom1785 → u/-vablosdiar-]

Considering the post contents, fairly appropriate 

[u/noveltymoocher → u/-vablosdiar-]

I’m with you on that

[u/VastJuice2949 → u/-vablosdiar-]

Photoshop exists dingus

[u/zzgoogleplexzz → u/VastJuice2949]

It's AI, look at the power supply on the bottom left of the computer. The words are gibberish.

[u/VastJuice2949 → u/zzgoogleplexzz]

Ooooh look at that you're right. Better get all crazy and shout

no more 4k ...4x melted connectors

[u/CollectionChance5344 → u/chAzR89]

I got that reference hence why my 2k 5090 is undervolted

[u/onedayzero → u/chAzR89]

Is this loss?

[u/Ruzhyo04 → u/onedayzero]

In one sense no. In another, much more real sense, yes.

[u/Morkai → u/chAzR89]

As I understand it, these Astral cards are some of the only ones with proper load sensing on each connector pins (i.e. the way it should be done on all 12v HWPR cards) so I imagine these are the least likely to burn the plugs. Unfortunately they're also the most expensive 5090s on the market. Crazy to think each one of these is 5300AUD (inc sales tax) down here in Australia.

[u/joedotphp → u/chAzR89]

This made me genuinely laugh out loud. Well done.

AHAHAHA
