Cablemod 12VHPWR Angled Adapter recall

[Supafly]

Just a heads up for anyone that has one of these. It's only the adaptor and not the cables. Details can be found here

Important safety tip!
Is anything safe with those new style connectors? There are still reports of meltdowns. It certainly seems to have been a bad idea of NVIDIA's to go for such a small connector.

Apparently the adapters have issues and didn't solve the 12VHPWR problem. The 12VHPWR cables by cablemod are not affected it's only the angled adapters.

Don't have one of the affected GPUs but as I hadn't seen this mentioned here yet I thought it could be useful for those that do.

When it comes to the 12VHPWR connector you just have to ask yourself one question. Am I smart enough to plug the cable in correctly? If your answer is yes then you are perfectly safe using the 12VHPWR connector. Cablemod selling defective adapters is another issue.

Hmm weird. I have the original 1.0 version I believe for my 4090, and I haven't had any issues. I'm pretty sure it's only an issue if it's not tightly secured.
