so basically if we stick to only your officially sanctioned bitstreams we should be withing card limits. its just if we load others we may destroy the card if we dont know what we are doing?
The way that I would see users destroying their card is operating bitstreams that push things to the extreme while not providing adequate cooling.
OR
Using a long molex chain to power multiple risers that would surely melt under the load.
OR
Using a sata connector to plug into the riser which isn't rated for 75W.
well going to be plugged directly into a x16 slot so no worries on the last two.
as for bitstreams ill use ones vetted by your group. cooling.. well i have deltas if needed and dont mind the noise; it will be in the basement.
still dont like the 90 day warranty but it is what it is.
