All Cablemod angled adapters, v1 & v1.1 - STOP USING THEM

Dear Hardware Community:

It has come to our attention that certain CableMod 12VHPWR Angled Adapter V1.1s may be defective. We have since decided to discontinue sales of our angled adapters. We will be conducting a voluntary safety recall for all CableMod 12VHPWR 90 ̊ and 180 ̊Angled Adapters V1.0 and all CableMod 12VHPWR 90 ̊ and 180 ̊ Angled Adapters V1.1 because of the potential risk that the male connector could become loose, overheat, and melt into the GPU.

This recall will apply only to our angled adapters and will not affect our angled cables.

We will be sending out an official notice of, and full details for, our voluntary safety recall in the upcoming days. In the meantime, owners of the CableMod 12VHPWR V1.0 and V1.1 Angled Adapters should STOP USING THEM IMMEDIATELY. Please do not touch the adapters while your system is running. Power down your system and wait until the adapter has had adequate time to cool down before handling.

Please reach out to our customer service if your GPU has been affected by a failed V1.0 or V1.1 angled adapter and we’ll help you out. https://cablemod.com/support/

We apologize for inconveniencing our loyal customers. We hope that you will let us make it up to you in the future.

Your friends at CableMod

This has been going on for months hasn’t it? Replacing customers 4090s must have cost them a fortune. Their over defensive presence all over Reddit has cost their reputation a fair bit, too.

The v1.1 was supposed to have fixed the issues from the v1.0 version, and I was looking for a UK source of a specific colour to go into my build.

Glad I procrastinated long enough to realise I should wait to v2.0 instead!

Although it's more likely I'll now just wait until I finally do my transplant/upgrade into a new more premium case than the iCUE 220T...to include a 7800x3d and ATX3 PSU (and a motherboard with enough PCIe lanes for 4 x 2TB m.2s)

Really fancy that Streacom SG10 passive cooling case that was shown with the big cooling stack on the top, and cooling plates for CPU and GPU.

$999 for a case inclusive of a cooling solution isn't so bad if you compare it to something like a Lian Li with distro plate and external rads. I probably spent about the same for case, GPU water block, a premium for an EKWB monoblock motherboard, some chunky external rads and the associated pipes and fittings.

The only downside is that you can't (easily) put the cold side of the cooling solution somewhere else for summer comfort (unlike with water cooling where some longer pipes and brackets to stick the rad outside work well).
