I learned my lesson with a RTX3080 from Gigabyte. The PCI-E power connector broke right away because they chose to put the connectors on this cheap little extension instead of putting them straight on the PCB properly. The pins inside the connector were pushed out and made no contact. Took them 7 weeks to fix the card. No Gigabyte for me ever again.
Gigabyte just can’t catch a break huh (or I guess their customers can’t)
