Still in bed recovering from my second cancer surgery on April 24th. It's been a real roller coaster ride so far but my doctors gave me more and far better pain meds. I get the prognosis tomorrow afternoon. I have computer things that need to be done but know from distant past experiences that even though I want to do them that it's far wiser to not touch any tools or electronics at the moment. Fuck cancer.
Am I nuts for entertaining the thought of spending $450 for a gently used RTX 4090 Matrix? :kookoo: :roll: :kookoo:

Might have to think about it now, as I just checked my PSU's product page on Amazon and my Corsair RMx 1000x is the 2021 model, so it doesn't have the 12 pin connector. I'd have to get a different power supply if I ended up going for the Matrix.

As long as the 12 pin is fully inserted, you should be okay. No guarantee of course, but just don't bend the cable & connector too sharply or anything and it will probably be fine. Doesn't mean its a good connector though..

True that. I think that connector needs to be either done away with completely, or redesigned from the ground up.

Alternatively, I did stumble upon someone selling TWO Sapphire TOXIC edition 6900xt's (but was willing to sell them separately) that my current PSU would be able to plug into no problem (card uses 1x 6 pin and 2x 8 pin connectors)
