And here I was thinking that my ATX 3.0 1000w PSU is future-proof

  1. I mean, the 4090 barely scales over 300W and they wanted to sell it with a 600,W mode, nothing in going to surprise me at this point.

    At least we can be relatively sure that the connectors are not going to melt since the current can be split on 2 of them… At least as long as the this is not 800W+

    ATX3.0 is already obsoleted by ATX3.1 and PCIe5.1

    Maybe this is there fox for all the burnt connecters. Split the amps over two connectors is a lot less heat.

    Can we have 2 psu? One dedicated for the gpu?

    This is absurd. The way GPUs are demanding more and more watts, like electricity is free, is out of control. It’s not scaling efficiently, and it needs to stop. It’s bad for my wallet, and even worse for the environment.

    Am I the only one who thinks regulators need to step in at some point?

  6. Around 2 or so years ago I got a 1300w power supply, I hope it’s enough for 5090

    Corsair for the win with the keeping of pcie connectors
