After numerous articles, explanations, and follow-up tests, today we’re taking a different approach. I have three intriguing topics for you: the possible origin story of the 12VHPWR connector…
Their connector expect 100% perfect contact which doesn’t happen in real life. There’s no engineering margins. Also they push too much current in too little copper without any of the necessary 30% margins. So that’s the difference between theory and practice, it just keeps melting and breaking cards. 12VHPWR just doesn’t work in real life. Look how the custom cards all go back to 2x8pins.
