Are 4090 cards safe to use for heavy workloads, I fear the melting power plug fault. (alien.top)

I'm not up to date how how this issue turned out so I'd like to know what the status of that is. I'd like to get a 4090 for a rendering machine that would be pushed hard 24/7. Would this be fine to do with a 4090, or are there ones that are known to be faulty and others that have no issue at all?

The power connectors are still melting and they are still blaming the user for not inserting it properly.

I'd avoid Gigabyte for the PCB breaking issues.

I'd say it's fine but check the power cable once a week, pressing it in each time.
