Initially, only the version shown will be available, either with the latch facing the PCB or away from it
It is planned to purchase the asus rog astral 5090 liquid edition
Which version of your product is suitable for me?
Will you be shipping this outside of Germany ?
Can you make sure that ampinel works for 5090 founders edition or any founders edition card? The recent connectors for founders edition are angled and not 90 degree
Maybe it is a stupid question, but since the output per pin currents regulated and monitored is there a good reason not to using a short extension cable (in a space restricted sff build) to connect it to the GPU?

As I understand it, some sort of extension cable would be required for this to work with a 5090 FE? If so, is there any specific type of cable you would recommend?
On the point of using an extension cable, it was said that: "...you have to be aware that
additional contact transitions can have a further negative impact on the
current flow." What does this mean / what are the implications of this exactly for a lay person? Thanks!

Your competition just unveiled their new product and in the video they say, that they decided against active load balancing because they dont know what is going to happen if you push higher current through pin that has higher resistance. What do you think about that?

What is going to happen if you push more current through the conductor that has a higher resistance is not a mystery. More current through a higher resistance means more voltage drop across that resistance, which results in more power being dissipated as heat. I don’t think the Ampinel works that way.
If one circuit path has a higher resistance, less current will flow through it. The Ampinel does not try to balance the current flowing through the 6 conductors by forcing more current through the high resistance path. Doing that would cause more heat to be generated, which further increases the resistance of the contact. A feedback loop is formed that results in a melted connector. My understanding is that the Ampinel adjusts the voltage drop across the total resistance in each circuit path. If 1 conductor has a higher resistance due to poor contact alignment, oxidation, or whatever reason, less current will flow through that conductor, not more, because V = I2R, so if the resistance is higher, the current must be reduced to keep the voltage drop the same. If the resistance is so high that the Ampinel cannot compensate for it, the Protection mechanisms are activated. That is how I think it works after reading Igor's Lab articles about the Ampinel. If I am wrong, perhaps someone from Aquacomputer will jump in here and clarify.
I am curious about this other new product. Can you provide a link to the video you mentioned?
