Hello,
Je vous partage un mail de la part de cablemod reçu aujourd'hui.
J'ai démonté mon adaptateur 90° aujourd'hui car je suis en train de refaire mon PC et aucune trace de début de brulure mais vu la communication reçu aujourd'hui je vais virer l'adaptateur et attendre la v1.1.
Bon CableMod aura quand même mis du temps à réagir je trouve....
Dear CableMod Customer,
Thank you for being one of the first users to purchase one of our 12VHPWR Angled Adapters. This has been one of our most ambitious and successful projects to date, and it is truly humbling to see so many adapters being used out there in the wild.
While the vast majority of adapters being used out there are performing as intended, we've noticed that the failure rate of the adapters compared to our equivalent 12VHPWR cables is significantly higher. While cases of failure are rare, they do happen more often than our cables, which could mean that unlucky users are going to be without a working GPU for a few weeks. Some users are starting to feel unsafe using their own adapters, and are wondering if any changes are coming down the road.
Behind the scenes, we've been working behind the scenes on a new revision of our angled adapters. Dubbed V1.1, these new adapters have the exact same dimensions as our original V1 adapters. However, their development includes some updated components, as well as take into account some of the feedback that media partners like JayzTwoCents has given us.
CEM 5.1 - With the new CEM 5.1 standard now in place, V1.1 adapters will include a CEM 5.1 female connector.
Connector tightness - as JayzTwoCents noticed quite early on, the main thing that could be improved is how tightly the adapter connects to the GPU. The current V1 version does have some wiggle room, which could cause the connector to come loose during the cable management process. Our adapter has a lot more pull force on it during cable management compared to our 12VHPWR cables, and so we have adjusted our terminals to have a tighter and more sturdy connection that should prevent it from coming loose. While the type of terminal didn't make a significant difference in our testing, the tightness could certainly be improved. This will result in the adapter being harder to both plug in and remove, but we feel this is an acceptable tradeoff.
Connector wiggle - some users have also commented on how the male connector on the adapter wiggles on the PCB itself. While this didn't affect performance in our tests, many users were concerned about it and V1.1 addresses this for the sake of user experience.
Early Adopter Program
We have been spending a lot of time interacting with the hardware community since the adapter launch. Frankly, we are extremely grateful for the number of people that supported us by purchasing an adapter for their systems.
However, some users have expressed that they would feel more "safe" if they instead used a direct replacement cable (ideally a 90 degree one) for their systems due to the fact that there are fewer resistance points connection wise. We also realize that everyone that supported us by purchasing a V1 adapter are probably wondering how they could get a V1.1 version and if there would be any sort of discount extended to early adopters.
To that end, we are introducing the following Early Adopter program to all of our angled adapter customers. Customers who purchased an angled adapter from us will receive a unique coupon code valid on our Global / EU Stores, which can be used towards the following products:
CableMod Basics 12VHPWR 90 Degree cable (available now) Global | EU
CableMod SFF 12VHPWR 90 Degree cable (available now) Global | EU
CableMod 12VHPWR Angled Adapter V1.1 (coming in 3-5 weeks)
CableMod Pro 12VHPWR 90 Degree cable (coming in 4-6 weeks)
This code will be emailed to you on or around August 1, and can be applied to the store account that you used to purchase your adapter for one of the above listed products.
What to Do Next
If you're one of those users who feel stressed about using their adapter in their systems, we encourage you to remove the adapter for now and just use a direct cable connection. Then, wait until you receive your unique coupon code, and head over to our Global / EU Store to purchase or pre-purchase one of these new solutions. We will ship out your preferred solution as soon as possible.
Should you have any questions, come join us on our Discord. We will have a new channel in place to discuss matters about the Early Adopter Program.
Thank you once again for being a CableMod customer.
Sincerely,
Your Friends at CableMod
