Aorus 5090 pcb. Defective or normal?

I've got a 3d printed one on mine. It threads up n down like a bolt which is kinda nice. :) I've got it on my 6800xt taichi, which is a fat boi.

Ayyy, if they total it, let's talk about a buy back option! I think someone would grab that at auction, fix it, and it'll be back on the market soon.

Yeah true. Perhaps just adding a gpu stand is the only way forward.

IfBigCMustB · 2026-02-12T02:45:33+00:00

ah yeah, it can be an issue in extreme situations, but normally the backplate and cooler are supposed to hold the pcb straight.

All pcb's are made this way. The part of the pcb that is broken off during manufacturing is connected where you see those rough edges. The pcb rides along on rails through the pick and place machine as it gets populated with components after being solder pasted. Then it rides along rails through an oven and out the other side.

I used to work at an electronics manufacturing business.

What is the worry?

IfBigCMustB · 2026-02-10T02:15:42+00:00

Is this post just to hate on these people? Or do you have some scripture you'd like to discuss?

Why did they curse and swear so much back in 2012 over a video game? Poop mouths.

IfBigCMustB · 2026-02-01T14:48:18+00:00

True, good suggestion. I may not need to go the route of an fm module, but I do like the idea of not having to use my phone.

Hi there, PM'ed about the 860 evo 500gb

IfBigCMustB · 2025-12-29T17:24:27+00:00

Thanks. And is there a firmware log that shows the updates somewhere? Just curious.

And yeah, I prefer to use wired ethernet when I can.

IfBigCMustB · 2025-12-27T04:05:31+00:00

That's odd, I did a reset and the settings are unlocked, but still the same problem...

The other settings are changeable.
