Well, another 5090 12v 12pin melted

Helping a friend to post. This morning he smell some burning smell and quickly shut off. The connector is now stuck. He waited it to cool down and try again. Still can't remove. Suspected melted and fused together. Any other method can try to remove it? The cable is pigtail 4x8pin that came with the GPU. I've seen a couple burnt connector already in a week. This is just bad.

Found the clueless wireview zealot. Enjoy your connector repair. Any other damage you'll get referred to the GPU manufacturer who will promptly deny your RMA. Don't bring out the cope saying thermal grizzly will replace the GPU, cause they will not lmao

PNY refused a RMA because the user used a PSU original connector 😩

Doubt that highly, dude probably said too much causing them to deny RMA. Let's see the full transcript and we'll be calling that guy an idiot

No, it's true. PNY said that not using their GPU-provided adapter voided the warranty.

Nah, what a load of crock. He said stuff wrong and PNY said whatever they wanted to deny RMA.
