Intel's internal performance projections confirm Arrow Lake desktop CPUs will be arriving next year.

The 12V-6x6 connection has now been spotted on both the RTX 4070 Founder's Edition and the RTX 4090 FE, replacing the 12VHPWR.

NVIDIA is changing the 12VHPWR connector for the GeForce RTX 40 Series, and it looks like a version of it has already appeared on the GeForce RTX 4070.

NVIDIA has apparently used the new 12V-2x6 power connectors on its GeForce RTX 4070 FE GPUs instead of the 12VHPWR design.

Nvidia already uses refined auxiliary PCIe 5.1 power connector on its GeForce RTX 4070 Founders Edition.

A gently-revised "12V-2x6" update is in the works, meaning more secure connections with software failsafes.

Nvidia has quietly replaced the 12VHPWR connector with an improved design on GeForce GPUs from the RTX 4070 onwards, reducing the risk of damage to the cards.

Nvidia's controversial 12VHPWR connector managed to wreak some havoc in people's PCs, but it seems that Nvidia is changing things up.

The new 12V-2x6 power connector is expected to arrive sometime next year for GPUs, replacing the prone to melting 12VHPWR connector.

The 12VHPWR connector is going to be replaced by a new design known as the 12V-2x6 PCIe 6.0 which has been revealed in PCI-SIG docs.
