    NV 12VHPWR issues revisited

    I can check, but I doubt it. ATX 3.0 power supplies all come with dedicated 12VHPWR cables after all. It's just that nobody owns them yet.

    NV 12VHPWR issues revisited

    Amazon brought the cable much faster than I thought, some photos below. Conclusion is that the NVIDIA-provided adapter must have been out of spec. The corsair one fits just fine. Photos compare insertion with approximately the same amount of force applied to the cable. No amount of force will...

    NV 12VHPWR issues revisited

    On the PNY card it fit easily. Maybe a small amount of force required to seat it flush. Not as much force as a ATX power pin adapter, but more than an 8-pin PCIE adapter. There wasn't much tactile sense that it was flush though like with PCIE connectors, but this is well-documented already. You...

    No, it's the NVIDIA-branded one, like this: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f1/2023_Adapter_NVIDIA_12VHPWR_%281%29.jpg I also got one of these with my PNY 4070 Ti.

    NV 12VHPWR issues revisited

    Yeah, I will try to remember to get some whenever I try again. I cannot rule out the possibility I am just being an idiot, but I cannot see how. Poster below seems to think it isn't worth trying, but I disagree. My 2 hour round trip to Microcenter is expensive in terms of my time, whereas simply...

    NV 12VHPWR issues revisited

    Yeah the one from the box. I can return to microcenter if the Corsair wire doesn't work out. In that scenario, or RMA, I will be stuck with my iGPU for some time since these cards are selling out pretty quickly.

    NV 12VHPWR issues revisited

    I wondered about that too, but the red no power LED lights up either way. ASUS is including instructions that indicate the connector needs to be flush as well. I will see happens with a different male component. I briefly had another NVIDIA GPU that worked, so I do have experience with a...

    NV 12VHPWR issues revisited

    I bought a ASUS 4070 Super Dual today and the connector does not fit. I tried several times, being very careful with alignment and applying so much force I was scared the connector would pop off, and I cannot get it to have less than a ~1.5mm gap. In fact there is so much gap that the red "no...
