Since a few of you have an RTX 4090, I think this may be of interest:

Here’s what’s happened to the 12VHPWR power cable of our NVIDIA RTX 4090 after two years of continuous work

The pic is a snippet from one of the article, to better see the damage.

As far as I know, none of you have had any problem with yours, but the next time you open the case to clean it, it wouldn't hurt to check how's the connector, just in case.

That's with an adapter, though, native 12VHPWR support from the PSU apparently distributes power more evenly across the cables. That's what I'm hoping, at least... (plus a very good undervolt).

Correct. But it's still the "official" adapter provided by Nvidia and it should work well.
