I remember seeing an image of one and it had two connectors on the PSU side.
I installed my 4090 on the weekend. I used the MODDIY 12VHPWR cables for my Seasonic PX-1000. No issues so far. When I plugged the cable in the connector made an audible "click" sound and I wiggled it a bit to see if it was loose. It seemed pretty secure in there. The cable is routed underneath and to the side of the card and you can see a bit of a stretch from the sense pin cables but the cable looks secured.
In terms of general installation of the GPU, I actually had somewhat of a difficult time. It didn't seem like the card was completely seated in the PCI-E slot and that the SATA in connectors on the motherboard were preventing it from being fully seated. I had the push down on them slightly just to make sure. Everything is running so I'm assuming it's good to go.
There is a noticeable rattle coming from the bottom fan when the fan spins at 1800RPM. I think GN made mention of it too. The fans never get there, however. I still need to play with the fan curve but the odd thing about these fans are that my external tools say the fan speed is 30% minimum (versus 0%).
My case barely had room with the cable inserted to put the side panel on (O11 Dynamic Razer Edition). I had to get 0.5" spacers 3D printed and even with that it was barely enough.
