ASRock PSU Thermal Protection Prevents RTX 5090 Connector Meltdown at 1350 W OC
A user-reported incident highlights both the risks of extreme GPU overclocking and the growing importance of power supply safety features. According to a post on the Overclock.net forums, an overclocked GeForce RTX 5090 narrowly avoided catastrophic connector failure thanks to a thermal protection mechanism built into an ASRock power supply. The system in question used an MSI Ventus RTX 5090 configured to draw up to 1350 W, far exceeding the GPU's official 575 W power rating. While short power excursions beyond TDP are common during boost scenarios, sustained loads at this level place heavy stress on power connectors and cables.

Why Almost Every One Of Your Devices Uses USB-C Ports These Days
USB 1.0 ports were once the most advanced means of connectivity for electronic devices. But USB-1.0 has evolved to USB-C, and USB-C has taken the lead for nearly every device you can imagine. The reason for that has to do with a variety of factors, beginning with versatility. USB-C ports can charge devices, transfer data, and handle both audio and video. Plus, USB-C delivers both high-speed power and data at the same time.

Scythe Launches Kotetsu Mark 4 Entry-Level CPU Cooler
Scythe Japan has launched the Kotetsu Mark 4 (model SCKTT-4000), its latest budget air cooler designed as a follow-up to the popular Kotetsu Mark 3. The new model keeps the familiar single-tower layout with four 6 mm nickel-plated heatpipes, now paired with the Wonder Tornado 120 mm PWM fan, a change from the KAZE FLEX II 120 PWM from Mark 3. The cooler measures 134 × 155 × 80 mm (vs 138 x 154 x 80 mm in Mark 3) with the fan attached and weighs 771 g. The 120 mm fan operates from 350 ±200 RPM up to 2000 RPM, pushing up to 60.29 CFM with noise levels rated between 3.0 and 28.88 dBA. Static pressure is listed at 0.05-2.45 mmH₂O, which should be enough for mainstream CPUs in compact or mid-tower builds. Another change is the restyled top cover adding a bit of attention to details.

However, none of today's graphics cards have high enough power spikes to justify the demanding ATX v3.x requirements for power excursions, as they are called; no one knows what future GPUs will bring.
