The new adapter from Cablemod dubbed V1.1 was recently announced on their Twitter page (Via VideoCardz) and is now available to purchase. This new connector uses the PCI-SIG CEM 5.1 standard which features shortened sense pins and should have a major reduction of the melting issues the 12VHPWR connector faced. Unfortunately for Cablemod, their original adapter wasn’t innocent and was also met with several issues with burning and melting which this new revision should hopefully remedy. Alongside the adoption of the CEM 5.1 standard, the adapter features improved tightness and the wiggle between the PCB and male connector has been resolved.
