If they put 2x 12pin HighPower connectors and they wouldn't be burning up because each would be delivering just 300W. But they explicitely don't allow board partners to do it themselves, because NVIDIA is bunch of controlling assholes.

If they need 2x12pin connectors they could go with the standard mobo ATX24, stable, sturdy.. hell, at this (powerl) point they could just use a 220V cord.

Are there many consumer PSU's with two ATX24 connectors? A quick search only shows Phanteks making one.

Nvidia controls enough of the market that more PSU manufacturers would if Nvidia needed it.

They could even used it as part of marketing. “So powerful it needs 2 connectors”
