looks like a walking simulator to me. Or is that the one where they had one 5090 doing the game and the other 5090 doing the DLSS? TBH doesn't matter to me I have an AMD 7900 XTX and zero desire to obliterate my power bill and/or burn my house down.

Wait do the AMD cards burn your house down, or are we talking the Nvidia one?

My AMD card has (3) 8 pin tried and true PCI-E cables attached, I think (don't know for sure) that some of the 9XXX series cards went to that connector that likes to catch fire.

The 9070xt Sapphire Nitro+ (their highest cooler tier) uses the new connector. People were not happy about it since they are considered one of the better AMD partner brands and nearly every other brand and model stayed with 8-pins.

Sapphire Nitro 9070XT, Asrock Taichi 9070XT, and some of the "creator" branded 9070XTs do too. Maybe some others. The ~325w of the 9070XT should mean that melting cables should be much rarer if there is current imbalance.

i'm sure a lot of the fires were caused, b/c nerds didn't have the finger strength to properly seat the new connector
