MSI has developed a new 12VHPWR power connector used in video cards to prevent computer hardware from burning and melting. It has been reported computer world.
Journalists personally tested the yellow connector, which ensures tighter contact of all wires with the power connector of the video card.
“This is a two-color 12+4 pin 12VHPWR power cord connector. One half is yellow and the other is black. If the user still sees the yellow part of the connector when inserting the connector into the connector, the installation is not complete, ”explained the experts.
It is noted that users can verify the reliability of the connection if they begin to see only the black part of the connector. So the MSI solution will make it easier to understand when the connector needs to be inserted deeper into the connector.
The solution was first presented at Computex in Taiwan. The demonstration was held with an MSI MAG A850GL ATX 3.0 power supply.
According to PCWorld journalists, in the near future this coloring may become the standard for connectors across the industry due to its convenience and ease of use.
In November 2022, users complained greatly of burnt video cards. For example, when using the new Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card reflow has occurred power connector, although the owner does everything according to the instructions.
