CableMod Recalls Angled 12VHPWR Adapters Amid Safety Concerns
CableMod is recalling all versions (1.0 and 1.1) of their 12VHPWR angled adapters due to a defect that may cause the male connector to loosen, overheat, and potentially melt into the GPU. Users are advised to immediately stop using these adapters and power down their systems. The company will be conducting a voluntary safety recall and will provide more details in the coming days. Reports of issues with CableMod adapters have prompted the company to offer replacements and cover damages to graphics cards. Users are recommended to use official adapters bundled with their graphics cards or cables provided by power supply companies as a safer alternative.
