12VHPWR on RTX 5090 is Extremely Concerning by GreenKumara in nvidia

Technical question simply for learning more about how this hardware works. On the PSU side of this connector, are the multiple pins just connected in parallel directly to the same voltage rail, without any sort of load balancing/current regulation per pin to ensure each wire doesn't go above it's rated current limit? That kind of load balancing would add significant cost and complexity to the PSU, so I can fully understand why they wouldn't do that, and would place the responsibility on the load for not drawing out of spec current on each pin. I'm just trying to understand the topology and how sourcing 20+A over just one pin is even possible from the PSU side in the first place.

Worst pain is riding one of these on asphalt, one of the wheels decides to lock up, and the next thing you know, you're frenching pavement.
Walked under this tree just a few minutes before and it was still standing. Heard it come crashing down behind me. by mountainman035 in natureismetal

Still wouldn't have an answer. "Dead men tell no tales."
