just wanted to share my experience with the new Thermal Grizzly WireView Pro 2 and see if anyone else has run into this issue.
I plugged it into my new setup (Asus ROG Strix PSU and a 5090 Astral GPU). Everything seemed to fit, but upon booting, the GPU immediately triggered a solid red LED light and refused to turn on.
After removing the WireView Pro 2 and going back to the native PSU cable, the system booted perfectly, and all 6 pins are showing perfectly balanced current distribution in the software.

EDIT: Thermal Grizzly reached out with a sincere apology and handled everything beautifully. Even though I am outside of Germany, they were incredibly cooperative and processed a full refund right away without requiring a return. Amazing customer service!

Hello ROG Community,
I am reaching out to verify some power readings on my new build featuring an RTX 5090 Astral and an Asus ROG Strix 1200W platinum Edition PSU.
The Issue:
Initially, I was receiving an Overvoltage alarm (Red indicator) on my power monitoring software. After troubleshooting, I disconnected and re-seated the 12VHPWR cable, ensuring it was fully clicked in and flush with the GPU header.
Current Status:
The good news is the alarm has disappeared, and all pins are now showing a Green status. I ran a FurMark stress test (4K, Fullscreen) for over 8 minutes, and the card reached its full power draw of 601W with stable temperatures (GPU: 66°C / VRAM: 70°C).
My Concern:
While everything seems stable, I noticed an imbalance in the amperage across the pins during the stress test:
• Pins 1, 3, 4, 5, 6: Ranging between 8.2A and 9.0A.
• Pin 2: Consistently lower, hovering around 5.9A to 6.2A.
Questions:

1. Is this level of amperage variance (specifically on Pin 2) normal for the 5090 Astral under full load?
2. Since all indicators are green and the total power draw is 600W+, is this something I should be worried about, or is it just how the internal VRMs distribute the load?
   I have a WireView Pro II on the way to get even more precise hardware-level readings, but I would appreciate any insight from the community or ROG experts in the meantime.
   System Specs for Context:
   • GPU: Asus RTX 5090 Astral OC
   • PSU: Asus ROG Strix 1200W
   • MB: Asus Z790 BTF
   • CPU: Intel i7-14700K
   Thanks in advance!
