Corsair rep calls reviewer’s comments “bullshit”
PC hardware YouTube channel Gamers Nexus reported in October that the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090s Founders Edition graphics cards could only be overclocked if all four of their 8-in connections were plugged in. A rep for PC part manufacturer Corsair called this “bullshit” in a private Discord. The remark blew up on social media, plus Gamers Nexus turned out to be right.

“It has come to our attention that a member of Corsair staff recently made inflammatory and incorrect comments regarding Gamers Nexus and Guru3D’s understanding of the Nvidia RTX 4090 power connector,” Corsair apologized in a statement. “These comments do not represent Corsair as a company, and we regret both the form and content of the individual’s outburst.” Moral of the story? Do not take cheap shots at Gamers Nexus.
