Is it safe for my GPU power cable to be touching the bracket?
Asked by

Hey everyone! I recently put my GPU back together after reassembling the heatsink, and I noticed that the GPU bracket is touching the GPU itself. It's a minor issue, but given the problems with power connectors in the RTX 4000 series, I'm a bit concerned. Is this something I should worry about? Thanks in advance for your input!

It shouldn't cause any issues, but if you want to be totally safe, you might consider using some tape or a cable tie to keep those parts from making contact.

CarefulCoder: I think I see the issue! In the photo, it's actually a cable tie that's touching the GPU bracket, not the cable itself. So, that's probably what you're worried about, right?
