Reply to comment by Optix334 in AMD says a “limited number” of 7900 XTX GPUs have a thermal throttling problem | Owners of cards with throttling problems are encouraged to contact AMD support. by chrisdh79

Nice cherry pick, its a design error that can potentially induce a user error due to the lack of proper secure connection.

"It required being VERY unseated AND ALSO pulling the cable at an angle. We tested it unseated without pulling at an angle, and it didn't fail even if it was equivalently unsocketed"

I feel like you didn't listen, or you replied to me by accident because that timestamp you edited in just supports the conclusion that it was user error.

Yall really so deep in your own bias that you're trying to equate a clip that appears to be inconsequential, and was proven such via dozens of hours of testing and analysis including X-Raying the connectors, to massive thermal issues. Get real. They almost couldn't make the connector fail when they were trying. Who's actually cherrypicking here?
