Is the connector melted? It’s hard to see. But if it is, cooler master isn’t to blame…

Its about the connector, that wont fit properly.

What the hell is that power placement lmao

what card is that lol

My 5090 had the Same problem. Bought a Reverse Cable from Be quiet.

i mean don’t blame coolermaster. That connector angle makes sense for every gpu that uses it besides sapphire. Blame them
TheBupherNinja
The GPU didn’t come with an adapter?
Papusan
Nice with the stupid hidden 12v-2*6 GPU power connector design… Isn’t it bad enough with this tiny fire bomb installed in your pc? Modern tech solution is a huge JOKE.

I dont get it, what is the problem? 😶🌫️
Proud_Course5799
That suck ! I guess you could buy a PSU extension cable kit to quickly solve your problem.

Looks like you tried to put it in upside down
Maleficent_Falcon_63
Is the other end a straight end?
Frostbitttn_
That looks to be Sapphire Nitro+ 9070 XT, it should come with an adapter for 3x 8pin connectors

Get a cable that’s bend the other way, usually labeled A for bend in one way and B that bends the other way.
ecktt
You rolled the dice by not checking before buying.
If the either was inverted, it would have been perfect.
The good thing is, I am sure cablemods makes a cable to replace that cable with the correct 90° to fit your needs.
I am almost sure if all 12V2x6 cables were 90 degrees, the failure rate would be much lower.

Well, plugging it in is one thing. But how the hell would you unplug it? The tab is literally unreachable
hardlyreadit
Does the psu not come with regular 6+2 pins? Just use the adapter that came with the gpu if so
RCX0dus
You can take off the plastic clip that bends the cable into the 90 degree angle. It will allow the cable to just come out straight
jermygod
your card design is moronic
Noxious89123
Fwiw, the only thing making that connector, a 90° connector, is a plastic shell that forces the wires in one direction and clips onto the main body of the connector.
You should be able to unclip the shell from each side of the connector with a small prying too, at which point you just have a regular connector.

What’s the issue here? It hasn’t melted
Paralelo30
This card rules. Just get a normal cable. The one that came with my psu worked perfectly
ThisAccountIsStolen
12VHPWR cables are reversible, so if the other end is straight, you can just plug the angled end into the PSU and use the straight end in the GPU.
Yilmas
Tell me you didn’t look at the specs before buying without telling me.
nesnalica
its not coolermasters fault.
its the gpu manufacturer doing something non standard
Ok_Error_5835
I don’t hand enough expensive gpus to see what the problem is here
Someone explain pls!
arabidopsis
Why can’t they make nicer connectors than that?
Like, why are we so sadistic at designing it like that, why can’t we have something as easy as Ethernet or USB jacks
SEDOY_DED
You bought card with shit connector placement. Probably the only one that has it. Not the cables fault
TheGoldenDobby
What seems to be the problem occifer?
LordOnion1227
I have the same PSU. If you look closely, there is a removable plastic piece. It comes off easily if you take your time.
sYnergon
dark power pro 13 the same shit, have an 5090 fe angled adapters not working 😂 2x 90^ included
sorvis
I bought the cooler master 1600w PSU with two 12vhp outputs, both cables angled the same way like c’mon man do one one way and the other flipped….
BillyBlazed
You got the STD type connector while your GPU has the RVS type header. Sadly not really the fault of CoolerMaster, more the fault that it wasn’t standardized.
Staubkappe
Just write them an E-Mail. I texted them because my SFX PSU had only 25cm cables but i needed longer ones and they sent me the 45cm cable kit for free. The also offered me free adapter cables in case i need them.

The 12-pin connector again?

My cats are the only ones who see the window on my case. I couldn’t care less if the cables are on top, or not.
Oh it’s a 90 degree connector.
Well it´s more like Nvidia´s fault.
thank the AIB
Don’t blame Cooler Master for someone making that joke of a card.
I mean, blame yourself for not doing the research before buying
What GPU is this? So I know what not to buy.
