I have run into some issues with the 12V 2x6 connector on my GPU. When I originally got the Wireview a little over a month ago, everything looked good. Currents were all within 1 amp of each other, and the temps stayed below 70 °C. A few weeks ago, I started to get current imbalance errors, so I tried switching out the cable, but after going through 4 different ones, none of them fixed the current imbalance, and over time, it seemed to be getting worse. I have two different 12v 2x6 connectors on the PSU, so I tried the other one, but no improvement. At this point, I'm pretty sure the issue is either the connector on the GPU or the Wireview itself. Also, there is a lot of 'play' with the Wireview fully seated on the connector, and moving it around drastically changes the current distribution per wire. Sometimes pin 2 gets no current, while other times it's pin 3 or 6, while 2 is much higher than it should be, and no matter what pins are struggling, the Temp In quickly heats up above 80° under a full load. I did a visual inspection on the GPU connector and both connectors on the Wireview, and didn't see any obvious issues with either. Let me know if anyone has any advice, since I'm reluctant to run the GPU at any significant load, given the reading. Also, the GPU is a 5090 MSI Ventus OC.
