Nvidia 5000 series GPU will overheat and burn
Asrock invented a way to prevent it: better electical cables
The GPUs WILL NOT overheat in the physical PCI-E connection, instead, it happens at the external extra power cable section.
PCI-E connector gives only 75 watts of power but GPUs need 400 watts, so how come?
There was 4 pin extra power connectors in the past, like 15 years ago, it provides 75 watts of extra and will never overheat
Then came 6 pin extra power that gives 125 watts, there was little problem with them
Problems appeared in year 2014 with 8 pin power connectors, but only a few models ever burned
SINCE 2025 we have 16 pin power connecter and 33% or EVEN MORE of the GPUs will burn through 16 pin! It gives 330 watts of extra power

Asrock company said they will put heat sensor into the 16 pin cable.
IT WILL INCREASE PRICE for about 33 euros due to sophisticated electronics inside the power cable. It cuts down power delivery when it detects too high temperatures, this slows down a GPU a bit but not by too much, the Nvidia GPUs are accustomed to changes in power delivery and will react in less than a second to these chagnes.
