I recently built a PC and my 4070ti Super has this plug. Would it be a smart idea to just put a small stick-on heatsink on the plug itself? I have a few lying around so if there’s no harm to it I might just put it on there.
I’ve not had issues with my 4070ti in the past few years, I recall it drawing less than 300W peak, (tdp on the super is 275W I think) nearly half the draw the 5090 has, won’t get anywhere near that warm.
4070 doesn’t draw as much power so should be fine.
if you have to put this much effort into just keeping a fucking power plug from melting (something that has been functionally solved since at least the 1970s), you have a failed standard that needs to be obsoleted.
