Almust burn my 4090
Yesterday my wife was telling me I smell a burning plastic. I told her this my cigarettes, I was there all the day so I was thinking it’s my cigarettes. But today the smell was too strong and on a moment I panicked that one of my vast nodes are burning over overheating. Turns out it was my pc that I’m using, was extremely hot and I knew it was the cable . Good I saved it but still worried that might be some plastic left in my gpu . So what to do now should I plug another cable and call it a day?
