EKWB teasing their 30xx FE block, ports look to be on the side opposed to the traditional top:
Will be interesting to see if it'd work here!

Saw this earlier. It very well might, since the distro plate is on the front of the case, so the ports are facing the front.
Should make routing to the radiator easier as well.

I am a little bit concern about my 3090 FE purchase...


The 12 pin power connector is only rated for 25 cycles...

I wouldn't worry too much about that. Existing Molex Minifit Jr series connector (that is what you already know as the 8-pin EPS, 6 and 8 pin PCIe, as well as the 24 Pin ATX connector) are only rated for 30 cycles also.

Here's datasheet, scroll down and look at the 'Durability' section: https://www.molex.com/pdm_docs/ps/PS-5556-001-001.pdf

BUT, are these GPU using the Mini or the Micro 12Pin?

Someone was complaining that the new 12-Pin connector (Molex Micro-fit series connector) only has a durability rating of 30 cycles, and I countered that all the existing connectors in your PC (Molex Mini-fit Jr) is also rated to a similar number of connect/disconnect cycles.

The new 12-pin is Micro-fit, everything else is Minifit Jr. Did this not come across clear in my original comment?

So did anyone get a 3080? I think I'm just gonna wait for the 3090 hopefully everything won't be bought up by bots like the 3080.
