According to news on October 12, the recent melting defect issue of Nvidia’s high-end graphics card RTX 4090 has once again attracted people’s attention. While the issue seems to have improved in recent months, a user named Byogore recently reported on the PCMR forum that his RTX 4090 was once again suffering from a melted power connector. Byogore's graphics card has been used for a full year, far exceeding the time range of the previous problem

According to my understanding, as early as early 2023, the power interface of Nvidia RTX 4090 frequently There is a melting problem. Many users reported that their RTX 4090 broke down after less than six months of use. These issues are directly related to melting issues on the graphics card itself, the power cord, the power adapter, and the 16-pin power connector. The case of Byogore shows that the service life of the graphics card clearly exceeds the scope of the previous problem

What is worrying is that Nvidia RTX 4090 may reuse the old version of the 12VHPWR power interface Byogore Condition. While it cannot be generalized, this increases the possibility that more unpredictable failures may occur in the future

英伟达RTX 4090显卡电源接口问题再度引发关注

Since the end of 2022, about NVIDIA RTX Problems with 4090 melting and damage have been widely reported online. This graphics card uses a new 12VHPWR power interface that can provide up to 600W of power.

Nvidia responded to these issues in November 2022, when the problems first began to appear. They claimed that the problems were caused by user error, indicating that users did not fully connect the 16-pin power connector. Plug into RTX In the corresponding power interface on the 4090. However, this proved not to be the case.

Half a year later, PCI-SIG launched a new 16-pin interface called 12V-2x6 power interface, claiming to solve the problems of the 12VHPWR power interface. This new port comes with some modifications, including a power boost to 660W, and a slight redesign that appears to resolve the port melting issue. So far, this new port doesn't appear to be experiencing meltdown issues, but only time will tell if it actually solves the problem. Nvidia has been quietly rolling out this new port to the RTX 4090 and other graphics cards, such as the RTX 4070, but there are still many RTXs on the market that use the older, original 12VHPWR power interface 4090 graphics card. Fortunately, most modern graphics cards have extended warranties to three to four years, and if something goes wrong in the next few years, the RTX 4090 should still be covered.

The above is the detailed content of NVIDIA RTX 4090 graphics card power interface problem once again attracts attention. For more information, please follow other related articles on the PHP Chinese website!
