No baby, no stress. Mission accomplished.

as someone else has pointed out to you, it was Definitively proven as User Error, and a small amount of manufacturing issues where some debris was left in the connector to cause the short. Here's a nice Gamers Nexus video where they spent thousands of dollars going to professional laboratories for analysis and trying to melt the cables:

Check your bias. You look stupid here.

Are there any real pictures or videos of it? I can only find rendered images and videos.

You can actually get a pretty decent tv in the 250-300 range and they go on sale pretty often nowadays.

I mean, couldn't this 3d tech be applied to VR headsets so you basically could have something similar to ready player one, a 'ski mask' which was simply screen and the tech itself in the screen made sure the right image went to the right eye?

Those things don't have much in common with VR/AR.
If you want to define VR/AR, they are whole mediums and computing platforms.
When was the last completely new medium or computing platform that failed to catch on?
That definition is important - it means they are general purpose devices for both entertainment/media and for practical use.

Yeah. Which made a big difference in the effect... but I still had it off 99% of the time. Even a super fancy, advanced, works perfectly every time and in all conditions... I just can't see how it would useful at all compared to the tools we currently have.

Intel struggled evolving into 64-bit processors while AMD was just cruising with their awesome stable ones.

This feels like one of those products that are used to demonstrate how cool it is but in reality literally nobody will be using them, not even professionals.

Wish they would make their regular mugs dishwasher safe. It's basically impossible to keep them clean given how delicate the coating is.

My daughter didn't much after 2 but I think our last go with it was at Disney World when she was around 2.5 yrs.

Right? I guess "Nanny" in this case would be the neighborhood teen that wants some spending money.

So for one, the heat coming out of your case is solely do to the amount of wattage being used. A card can run at 60c peak and still pump out 40c+ air if it's drawing 400-500w.
For two, we are talking about junction (or hotspot, in Nvidia's case) temp, not edge temp. I do not believe for a second that anything other than a watercooled 3090ti is running at 70c junction temp. If you're comparing a watercooled cards' temps to a reference cards temps, I don't know what to tell you.
I believe that the AMD GPUs in question actually maintain fairly decent edge temps, while actively thermal throttling due to junction temps.

It's crazy how people can watch the same videos from the same handful of content creators and come to wildly different conclusions. The issue with the 12 pin connector is primarily user error. No amount of issue with the design can be used as an excuse for leaving the connector so clearly unplugged as to cause the overheating issue.

I recently saw one at Costco. What are people thinking spending $120 on a heated coffee mug? I just use a knock off yeti tumbler that costs like $20, and it keeps my coffee hot for hours. How long do you need your coffee to stay hot?
