I thought blocking .ml would end the troll-madness, but - apparently I didn’t. Well, at least the rest of the comments here show me that I’m not crazy or smth :3

Case is ground, and one big +12V pipe through the middle. Or, alternatively, the other way around for theft protection.

I’m used to consumer protection (laws) … the kind that, you know, protects you from spontaneous fires, infinitely accelerating and exploding cars or toxic ingredients, especially if those products are supposed to be officially premium products, not bypassing those laws by importing directly from china under false names and Cina Export instead of CE. And in this case, that obviously failed, to a worrying degree.

Consumers should be protected from literal fire hazards.

- That’s what they made sure to check multiple times. That’s the points. It’s exactly what not happened, everything was connected correctly
- Every cable is a thid party custom cable. The only exception may be a cable from NVidia themselves, which is only an adapter from 3*8Pin to 12VHPWR - there is literally no first or second party 12VHPWR cable. So what should they use instead - nothing? Wire it up themselves? That would be the only non-third party cable they could have. And in both cases, the cables where very high quality. So no Aliexpress crap.

That’s the point: It’s explicitly not. Both where very aware of the issues and checked the connection multiple times. Also, if you’re talking about custom cables, which cables would not be custom? The only official cable is the adapter from nvidia, all others are 3rd-Party. Roman (der8auer) even uses an on-brand cable, explicitly says and shows the connection and says he tried to push it in further multiple times during the test.

So no, it’s most of the time not user error.

Two. Two guys. One of which had cables melting away at casual gaming, the other of which had 150°C reached (and it would go higher over more time) in an open environment.

And even if it’s only those two, that’s two too many.

Even Hannah-Montanna Linux wouldn’t have that happen.

Very likely, yes

pavucontrol works for me (on arch)
