Der8auer’s video is worth a watch, he got one of the Redditor’s card:
This is huge. A working setup like that leading to >150°C after 4 minutes on those thin cables is insanity!

How is it clickbait when there’s literally pictures of the melted connectors in the article?

Every cable except for Nvidia’s 8 pin octopus cable adapters are third party. That includes the native 12Vhpwr/12V-2x6 cables that are coming with high end PSUs. The actual connectors are all made by either Amphenol or Molex anyway.

If the connectors are on the board, and they melt, it’s on the manufacturer that put them on the board, especially since this happened with the last release.
A $2,000 GPU shouldn’t carry the risk of burning your house down.
I think your comment opened my eyes to my poor reading skills. I was talking about cables not the connector.
