>clearly it wasn't that bad of a problem for AIBs not to take very drastic action
AIBs aren't allowed to make drastic changes to the video card's power delivery design.
All they can do is add more phases (band-aid) for the NVVDD, but even overbuilt Strix, AORUS, and Suprim 3090s have been dying.

There's a reason why NVIDIA ditched that split power phase configuration for the 3090Ti.
