Except it's not the AIB's. Nvidia themselves used a cheap cable maker as stated in the article.

You know I'm not an electrician I'm a mechanic by trade and even I can tell that the connector that Nvidia has chosen for this architecture is not big enough anybody that has any knowledge of electrical can tell this connector is not heavy enough for this architecture card it just isn't

Designs a card that both draws as much power as and costs as much as an entire PC, take a huge amount of flak for it, then the cards fail due to poor power connections. Of course they are in panic mode. They already lost a lot of consumer trust, this is just another bad reflection on them.

Nvidia's cult is dope lol. Why not blame for the design of graphic brick which consumes too much power as consumer electronics?
