I saw this picture while looking at overclocking guides and I wondered if I may have my power setup incorrectly. My GPU is currently connected exactly like the don’t do this diagram.
As I type this I"m in the process of building a new computer, going from a GTX-1080 to an RX7900GRE, and it’s relatively small, I got a 2-fan Asrock Challenger one and while it’s bigger than the 1080 it’s not as big as some I’ve handled. It’s amazing how they managed to pack the 1080 into such a small package. I guess the blower fan helps.
