hotaru251 the fact that all these companies are trying to "fix" the PCI-SIG/Nvidia issue is astonishing as they shouldnt be required to fix another persons failure.Every one of them should have just pushed back anddemanded change to the spec to be more reliable and less prone to error (even if user) Reply

There's an entire market that has sprung up trying to work around 12VHPWR/2×6 shortcomings. People will absolutely buy new $100-300 PSUs that promise to protect their $1000+ video cards. Reply

There is no guarantee they will make their $ back rather than just doing normal business. Reply

None of the fixes that have come to market from the big companies actually involve much material cost. Most of them also don't really take a whole lot of exclusive engineering work either. If the companies didn't see dollar signs from implementing them they just wouldn't. Reply
