Nice. How did you find these lot?are you based in the UK or Germany as well?He is a repair shop in Germany this specialises in precision repair work on GPU and CPU :

I am UK based but found them perfect to deal with, the guy speaks fluent English so basically like dealing with someone over here tbh
as mentioned I've used him more than once , the CPU i paid for as Cablemod didn't seem too interested in helping me out on that one 
Only because the temp sensor isn't on the cable :-)
Hush you

Holy crap. It is a corsair cable issue!!

Have you seen the reply from Corsair too? They are saying its fine and nothing to see here.. even the smug reply to Roman.
They should be next to go on the gamers nexus chopping block..
They are a disgrace.

That cheap amazon cable LOL
Seriously check your cables to see if the pins are loose like Jayz one was in that video
Astral £1799? Issue is they know people will cave and buy at those prices. There’s no way they are coming down to what they should be so in some ways I don’t blame you. It’s just a travesty last year you could buy a 4090 for the same price and have better performance. Just not good.

For about 150 pounds more you can get the 5090 lol

No no, few cheaper options went live this afternoon so picked up one for £1250. Feels insane to me, most I’ve ever spent on a GPU before was about 500 for a 3070!
This is actually a great video. I have a Antec HCG 1200 Pro Platinum 1200W ATX3.1 and I'm definitely going to check the connector when I swap the 4080 to the 5090 on Sunday.

This makes sense. The same thing which makes the design bad, parallel cables shorted at both ends, means the current has to be equally split unless the contact resistance changes, the crimping is awful or the wire guage is inconsistent.
