Even a middle school teacher will tell you put large amount of current over a wire is an bad idea though. Remember P=I2R? It should be in the first few class that you learn about electricity.

And nvidia engineers decides to put current originally carried by 24wire (or even 32) into a 12wire connector without change the connector size. Wow it's so surprising that it would burn.

I just don't understand how the f*k the whole thing get approved at first place. It's just insane.
