The "bug" with MSI AB and touching voltage control causing boost clock to get stuck around 2.3/2.4ghz is still there with the new driver. Either not fixed or its an MSI AB issue and not driver issue. Unsure.

Don't believe it's relegated to AB, the same behavior is observed using GPU Tweak 3.

@yzonker

I scored 40 077 in Port Royal I have to close background programs and have a good run, but I'm happy

With the new drivers 572.42 I can use a 4k240 monitor without getting black screens, the moment I get 2 or more ,black screens when playing or benching with the computer freezing,Nvidia is informed and asking for logs to find out what is happening, I will give them some time otherwise I will return the graphics card.

I agree a thread for just cable talk is a good idea. Until then I think this from Tiny Tom is pertinent.

That one is really not that bad at least in the thumbnail pic. Haven't watched the video. Just shows how badly the cable is under spec'ed. Slight imbalance and Asus flags some pins as overloaded.

Post it on https://www.reddit.com/r/Corsair/ and tagg in Mr. Jonny Guru and ask if this is the standard you should expect from Corsair products:cool: He should be fast to reply in these days.

Would be nice to see @der8auer could check his smokin hot Corsair cable as well.

Edit. Already posted on the Corsair forum

Ok if we review it carefully corsair seems to be really low quality and we should use nvidia adapter.
Nevertheless, MSI cables seems good?

would these ones be good options?
the ones with the yellow cable.
I have a corsair hx1500i (newest cable) and i can see what jay says.
There are uneven pins. No damage yet to my card but i am tempted to buy the msi power supplies.

Opinions?
Anyone has experience with MEG Ai1600T and MEGO AI1300P psu?

I'm not sure i want a connector that carries 600w in it to have play as he says , sounds sloppy to me :rolleyes: I've checked the 2 Cablemod cables i have here ( 1 90 deg , 1 straight ) and they look all uniform and no movement when pulling on the wires but with the FE i will use the included adapter at the minute but have just ordered another Cablemod cable but this one is the new 12v-2x6 into 2 x 8pin version so should have the updated plug GPU end, as @yzonker has put previously these are now consumable items o_O

At least some of the Techtubers are finally telling people that as well and not user error. I'm not bitter though...

I use RTX5090D to run 3Dmark DLSS4's MFG testing but got an error window tells " DLSS4 multi frame generation requires an Nvidia geforce RTX50 series GPU and HAGS to be enablied in windows settings",But i already turn on HAGS and install the latest driver 572.42(by cleaning previous one with DDU) OS:windows 11 24H2 driver:572.42 video cards:RTX5090D CPU:i9-13900K MB:asus z690 apex ram:32GB DDR5 6000

It's what I said 2 days ago :
https://www.overclock.net/threads/o...ial-nvidia-rtx-5090-owners-club.1814246/page-172?post_id=29426254#post-29426254

It's just basic on electrical stuff. I do same for atx 24 pin and all others plugs but there is more safeties in standard atx because bigger. Just the way to make longer the pins in the 12v2x6 plug is not the solution, current has to pass in the same tiny male pin section but let's say with a perfect connection the plug supports max 675w. It's controversial because in electricity more you have length and more you increase resistance but yep they can't make H+ bigger so they add more contact by pin length. At this tiny level it could help but the best is to make male pins bigger, the double at least.

We may see more melted 12VHPWR cables/connectors forwards.... Both on the PSU side and the GPU side of the cable. + the cable itself. And for both 4090 and 5090 cards.

Even after melting, the melted 12VHPWR cable still fully works. Testing it with the RTX 4090 and an RTX 5090 returned stable results, with no crashes or stability issues. While this is a good sign, it also means that more 12VHPWR cables in the wild may have melted than we know, as the meltdown does not always affect performance.


Official RTX 4090 power cable found melted by reviewer 2 years later — card functioned fine despite hidden melted connector

Oh yeah, for sure. Mine had zero issues, aside from the voltage dropping a little more than usual which led me to inspect it. It wasn't even that bad, much better than some people consider acceptable, and I was actually debating if I should check it or not. If I had kept it that way, and not removed it from the socket, I bet it would still be running "fine". I even managed to game a few months with the re-plugged connector that was very badly melted and obviously making a bad contact on some pins as there was no plastic left, lol.

Anyone pressure nvidia to walk away from 12v2x6?

we could easily just switch to eps12v 8pin, and use just 2x8pin cables to provide 800w using 2 such connectors (8.5a x 12v x 8 x 2)

modern psu already combined eps12v 8pin cpu with gpu use

psu suppliers simply provided extra cpu cables in this move

3x 8-pin is like a retirement community for them @ 600W, it's nothing. So many people (including my cousin who has zero knowledge of PC's but is addicted to high performance because he grew up with me and got used to it 🤣, so I "manage" his rig) are running a shuntmod and/or XOC BIOS on the hungriest 2x 8-pin card I know: the 3090. No part of the electrical connection even gets warm when pushing 600W, maybe slightly above room temp. Jensen needs to see this picture and give up on his cute chihuahua connector.
