It's gotten to the point that it's really hard to tell.

Lets hope so!

It was almost certainly a joke

Can you give me an example of this utopian communist country where everyone gets a free 3090Ti?

Yes but The efficiency difference is about 3% between 50% - 100% load. Not a huge concern.

There's a lot of unknowns and hyperbole being thrown around unnecessarily, so its important to clarify a few things. 1. GPU power requirements are certainly increasing, more than we thought they would be especially with Pascal a few years ago...

A lot can happen in two years. 40 series will be out this year.

It was only announced yesterday, it hasn't been released yet. They haven't even released any complete specs or pricing. So yeah, there's still nothing atx 3.0 out there.

You can avoid being reminded how pointless your post is by reading before responding

Which point? The adapter? There’s no dispute. It’ll work to deliver power but it won’t give you the extra features provided by the 4 pin on an ATX 3.0 I made that clear two posts ago. Apologies you got confused. You’re welcome too

You learned something today. You’re welcome.

Right. I believe there’s only one currently by MSI. That’s the main problem if you need a PSU ASAP

An adapter adapts the 12pin. It leaves the 4 sense pins disconnected.

My understanding is those extra 4 sense pins on top of the 12pin PCIe connector allow for better GPU power management and potentially better performance from AD10x GPU's Speaking for myself, it's the route I would go if I was planning to upgrade...

If you’re going to get a new PSU for a 4090 it might as well be an ATX 3.0 one

I've used it to initiate returns and track items that were basically lost. That is customer service. It is instant. Lost a $900 laptop in transit? Said delivered but was not? No problem. It was addressed in minutes and refunded. That is customer...

I would collect aluminum cans around the city before buying that to get something better.

I mean... yes, but not in a meaningful way 80+ Gold for example is rated for 90% efficiency at 50% but you still get at least 87% efficiency at 100% load. The efficiency difference between 50 and say 70-80% load which still gives you plenty of...

With so many cases having options for front and top mount radiators, I wonder if AIO's take advantage of this and offer dual radiator solutions.

I don't think PCI4 will make any appreciable difference with either of those cards TBH. You'd have been better off buying something second hand. 1650 is a pretty anemic gaming card.
