Unfortunately, 4090 is already going into the obsolescence by power cable fire hazard territory. Keep your eye on it as it ages.

    It's been over 3 years now and I haven't had a single issue. I made sure to plug in the 12VHPR cable all the way and avoid bending it. I also made sure to buy a top tier PCIe 5 PSU.

    The issue was vastly blown out of proportion. Don't be an idiot and you have nothing to worry about.

    As a fellow owner, that's what they want us to think. Feel safe, but then out of nowhere your house burns down and then you have to buy a new card.
