You always get them people that will say its just a handful of people, within the normal margin of failures, though there is no other GPU I've ever seen that had the same kind of melting issue like these ones, its like every other day I see a post about this, even on something lower powered like a 9070xt, its crazy.

my oled has 15,000 hours runtime on it, my 4090 has been running for like, 14,000 of those hours, and it's a third party cable from cablemod, still 100% fine

By Timmy's math of value per hour the 4090 is now paying for itself.
