For players who want to buy 4090, under the high price, they will choose more carefully after some fires come out, but AMD is not panic at all. Netizens have posted pictures one after another showing that the 12-pin hole at the bottom of the RTX 4090 power interface is seriously damaged, and the 4-pin above is relatively good. The player said that his adapter cable has a quality problem and is seeking a replacement from the manufacturer.
Judging from the damage to the power interface of the graphics card, the main problem of this fire seems to be the 12 pins below. However, it can be found through the power supply cable that the user is using an adapter cable with the NVIDIA logo, but it is still severely burned.
The upcoming AMD’s new flagship graphics card will not have the above problem. According to Angstronomics, AMD’s new Navi 3X GPU-based graphics card will still use dual 8pin power connectors.
Before that, VideoCardz also broke the news that the Radeon RX 7000 series graphics cards that AMD will release will not use the 16pin power supply interface (12VHPWR) on the RTX 40 series.
The whistleblower Kyle Bennett also emphasized that the RX 7000 series of public graphics cards or non-public versions will not use the 16pin power supply interface.
Judging from the information previously exposed, the RX 7000 series public graphics cards use a 5nm process, which is 50% higher than RDNA 2 in performance per watt, with a three-fan design, similar to the RX 6950XT, a computing unit with a new architecture, and more.
