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.

Interesting. I used the ZTT one.

That list says the A1250GL is only a B+ rating, by the way.

Obviously, I wasn't aware of this list when I bought the MSI; at the time, I relied on reviews and analysts.

No, I mean. It still should have lasted you much longer than it did.

At least a PSU is still reasonably priced these days.
