𓀐 @frz7m+Zq: I'll put it this way. I bought a wire view pro 2 for my 5090 well after the fact. My power cable to my gpu was over the top of the card. I had a 180 degree adapter so it looked cleaner. The WVP2 only has a 90 degree rotation so if I wanted to maintain a clean look I'd have to route the cable under the card. My gpu barely fits in my case so rerouting the cable would require me to remove the card and my front intake fans. I was so lazy I just opted to get a WVP2 that would orient to the top and it looks goofy as hell with the cable just sticking up. I didn't want to take my card out. Maybe down the line I'll buy another WVP2 with the reverse connector and move the cable underneath the gpu.+
