A #reddit user reported that their #asus ROG Astral RTX 5090 #gpu caught #fire while #web browsing, causing damage to the #motherboard. Images show that the #pcb burned, likely due to a failed multilayer #ceramic capacitor (#mlcc), possibly from a defect or power #surge. This adds to existing RTX 5090 issues like #melting 12-pin connectors and #black screens, raising concerns about its #reliability despite its #premium price. https://gagadget.com/en/590146-asus-rog-astral-rtx-5090-premium-graphics-card-caught-a-user-on-fire-while-web-surfing/
