I don't understand how the ATX standard hasn't adopted higher voltage rails for GPUs. Higher volts mean fewer amps which means less heat. 44A through an 8 pin connector is going to make a lot of heat. 11A at 48v would be much better.
Apple did something similar, then they put 48V pin next to 3V pin 🤦
That's....sooooooo Apple....FFS 🤦
