    it’s incredible that nvidia has some kind of protective coat that no shit they do adheres to that coat. Just slides off to someone around nvidia.

      Asus: chooses not to use the official adapter and creates bad quality ones.

      You: omg how could Nvidia do this!!

      It’s incredible how AMD fanatics manage to blame Nvidia for everything.

        what do you mean? It happened to FEs as well, not as many. It was “user error” if it’s common to be a user error is no longer a user error, it’s a product error.

        It’s such an error that it’s getting replaced. How can you go and think “yaps, it’s the users that were in a wrong but nvidia is replacing the perfect connector because it had 0 problems”

          We were talking about Asus, not fes. FEs don’t ship with the 12vhpwr as it’s already been revised. FEs has incredibly low error rate from what I’ve seen. The overwhelming majority of issues I’ve seen have been from aftermarket adapters like cablemod.

        Nvidia vendors shipping substandard products is in fact an nvidia problem, and pointing that out has nothing to do with AMD.

          I don’t think it’s all nvidias fault if an aib decides to go against their recommendation. It’s okay to recognize that Asus has some responsibility too.

          The commenter is an AMD fanatic which is why I pointed that out.

      They can sell H100s for tens of thousands of dollars, and there’s a multi-month queue to buy 'em.

      Funny. I see the exact opposite most of the time. Nvidia has already revised the connector and this is largely a non-issue yet people have been relentlessly fear mongering the same narratives over the last year in an attempt to shit on Nvidia.
