In the OPs case, I am not convinced it is being caused by the lack of the second PCI-e cable...sure, it doesn't help...but, for it to happen when turning the system on for the first time (least I assume it was the first time) meaning the GPU under no load makes me think it really is an inherent weakness somewhere in those cards, whether a capacitor or transistor or something that is prone to breaking on movement.

I recall saying the same thing on another thread yesterday about another GPU failure of some description
It's really surprising to be honest - the card looks so robust as if it could stand a bit of beating. But what do I know.

I have called technical support - I'll be sending it back to them to figure out what the root cause is.
Mentioned the issue with the wiring.

Many thanks for all the help.
I'm glad its being sorted, hopefully wont take too long.
But yeah probably best they check it over properly
