MSI Announces the MAG GL Series ATX 3.0 Power Supplies
The latest MAG GL Series power supply unit series helps complete MSI's offering of PCIe 5.0 ready power supply units across its entire lineup, besides being ATX 3.0 compatible and PCIe 5.0 ready with native 16 Pin connectors designed in yellow to improve assembly identification. This is an 80 Plus Gold certified power supply unit that is fully modular, single-railed with DC to DC structure. Just from the mentioned features alone, you can tell that it is a power supply unit designed to fully tackle the latest high-performing graphics cards while maintaining a stable supply of power. The power supply is 140x150x86 mm, which means it can also easily fit in most of the micro-ATX chassis.
The MAG GL series ATX 3.0 power supply which fully supports NVIDIA GeForce 40 series graphics cards and complies with PCIe 5.0 and Intel PSDG (Power Supply Design Guide) ATX 3.0 standard. ATX 3.0 standard means the power supply can hold up to 2x total power excursion and 3x GPU power excursion while using native 16 Pin PCIe connectors that can pipe up to 600 W of power and reduce the use of adapters, optimizing assembly space. Now MSI ATX 3.0 power supplies are across the entire series, offering many options for choosing the power supply they need. (MAG A850GL PCIE5 and MAG A750GL PCIE5 only).MSI Dual-color 16-pin cable
Examining the reported cases of power supply connectors being burnt when paired with high-end graphics cards, we've identified the main reason: the connectors not being plugged in properly and the connector pins suffering from fallouts. With this new cable, we successfully tackle both issues head-on.
The cable's connector color has been changed to yellow so that users can easily see if the connector has been plugged in properly. Besides, the MSI patented pending Dual-color 16-pin cable also won Wccftech awards in the 2023 COMPUTE

it pains me to look, the very thing that's weakening the grip of the connector. just pull out. what's the wiggling for.
I am a printer technician and that's the first thing i teach new workers. Just pull out!
Also manufacturing tolerances can vary, some cables are hard to come out.
Even perfectly seated connectors melt, and it's always with 4090's.
As for the MSi power supplies: what does "GL" stand for? Good luck? Nor very reassuring. :wtf:
That or not wanting to recognise the mistake and/or redesign the cable on pressure from nvidia and the psu manufacturers so as to not have the current inventory look bad and make it trash as no one would want to keep or buy the old version. I would go with the 2nd option.
It's also disgusting what the media did to whitewash this, especially GN.
NO! STOP! DON'T HIT THE POWER BUTTON! I STILL SEE SOME YELLER!!! PUSH IT IN HARDER!
You won't seen anything that cheap in a car, truck, train, etc... Molex were just not designed for continuous high-current loads
Anyone had a chance to try these A-GL PSUs? I'd like to replace my FSP Hyper to finaly start my journey into modular units!
