G*mers blame OP, Nvidia, and chinkshit cable companies when his RTX 5090 starts burning

It's my one darn hobby.

After having no games i wanted to play for years, and multiple times not being able to play the cool new game that released, i decided to splurge a bit

Gpu prices tanked 2 months later

Oh and the new games are still shit and barely above 40 fps because I didn't wait enough and now new gpus have AI shit. I hate PC gaming today

>getting g*mers to subsidize a smuggling operation of technology to the CCP to produce an AI abomination that will end human existence

nvidia sub is always hilarious to watch during these times because until launch day they are always like

"HOLLLDDDDD!! DO NOT BUY AT THESE PRICES!! NOT A PENNY MORE THAN $800! THESE PRICES ARE UNJUSTIFYABLE!!"

and then the moment they launch, you see s about QUES, Shopping cart issues, Scalpchads, and now even AIBs and then 2 days later, "HEY GUYS I BOUGHT THIS 5090 $3000!!" "wow" "amazing" "enjoy the card!!"

and always some Burning connector or dead card crops up and the cycle repeats

This is like the third fricking generation in a row of Halo Nvidia cards dying en masse within weeks of launch. They fricking fell for it again. They're paying a fricking premium to fall for it.

Do they ever drop in price anymore? I don't really think waitstrags win in the end.

The smart ones will be selling the 5090 in a year or two to upgrade at the same price they bought at or better if the 4090 is any indication

Not a redneck what does this mean

>can't deliver 12V

OOP really doesn't P=IIR

Don't disrespect your betters, Winblow scum

>why would any one do that?!

P=IV : Power = Current x Voltage

The voltage delivered by power supplies is constant, so if the new card pulls more power, that means there's more current.

This affects the cables:

P=IIR : Power = Current squared x Resistance

In this case, current is the current flowing through the cable and resistance is the total resistance of the contacts and the wire. The power is the power dissipated effectively as heat in the wire.

When you increase current, power dissipation increases in a square relationship (much bigger change in output for a small change in input).

Next thing is that copper wires have a positive temperature coefficient: when they warm up, they increase in resistance.

Contacts don't connect to their mating surfaces uniformly; there's usually small 'hotspots' of contact where current passes through. Shitty or worn connectors may not contact well (few hotspots), which can increase the effective resistance, increasing heat dissipation, thus increasing temperature.

The massive voltage drop over my 2cm cable

I have 3rd party cables on an older build that work just fine. At this rate I'll never get to use em with the newest hardware
