Is it appropriate to link a 12VHPWR GPU cable in this manner?
I believe the 90 degree connector should work either way, since it fits both directions. The plugged-in result seems normal, so problems shouldn't exist. However, I'm concerned about potential issues with these connectors. Nvidia should address this before the 6000 series.
I possess a be quiet! 600W cable featuring a 90 degree connector, meaning it should work in either direction, correct? For clarity, please note the model of your Be Quiet! PSU and its age. Additionally, keep in mind that this isn't an omnidirectional cable like a USB Type C. Based on my analysis, the connector may only fit one way on the PSU and the GPU. I'm curious if there are other factors at play with these connectors. Many online users have reported similar problems with their connectors melting, despite proper seating. It's been highlighted by various tech journalism sources, yet a fully seated connector still remains a mystery. I sincerely hope nVidia addresses this issue before the 6000 series is released. They have other urgent priorities, such as AI developments, which Steve frequently jokes about on Gamers Nexus.
It's isn't a be quiet! PSU. It is an MSI 1100W that is 4 years old. I bought the 12VHPWR cable because Xidax built the PC with an adapter cable even though the PSU has a 12VHPWR plug.
