Modder fixes melting RTX 5090 power connectors with custom distributor
Reddit user u/DallasGrave showed a custom power distributor for his RTX 5090, with extra wires soldered directly to the card's power rails and routed to two 8-pin connectors. In a 48-hour stress test at 550W, temperatures reportedly never exceeded 40°C. The modder is linked to GRAVEPC.com and claims a PNY-specific version with full warranty will be sold.
