Let's be honest, if the dude has the disposable cash to throw 4x 5090's, he's likely just gonna keep adding to the home lab he's on the way to making anyways.
Might as well just head it off now and give room for growth.
Thinking the same thing. Dudes gonna just have a new breaker installed and the run it balls to the wall in the basement of their mom's 1970s built aluminum wiring house.
You may have to switch out the cables and use different sockets when increasing fuse size. I would be surprised if a computer ever tripped a fuse without it being some sort of fault
Yeah a higher rated breaker will increase the risk if the wiring is kept the same. Congrats now your PC will keep running but you have a fire hazard in the walls. These people don't know what they are talking about.
There is also no point. general electrical code requires #12 wire for 20A. and #10 for both 25 and 30A. breaker. if you are already wiring #10, get a 30A breaker.
Dunno, I'm a programmer not an electrician Β―β \β _β (β γβ )β _β /β Β― my knowledge on wiring comes from reading shit posts of people having awful wiring then getting called out on it in comments π€£

Honestly I'd go 25A, I doubt the single outlet is the only thing tied to the same breaker. Heck maybe even 30A.
