Where We’re at, an H1 Safety Update

Just a quick update. We are happy to share that we’ll be sending updated PCIe riser Gen 3 cable assemblies out earlier than we expected. We’ll start shipping as early as late February to customers who have already requested a nylon screw repair kit or a new cable.

We will start by sending cables out to all those who requested the initial repair kit (in the order the requests came in). We will then send cables to everyone who bought an H1 directly from us but have not requested the initial repair kit yet.

This update will also serves as a reminder for users who:

Need to request the repair kit if they didn’t buy their H1 directly from us

Need to request installation help with the new assembly

Want to opt-out of receiving the updated PCIe riser Gen 3 cable assembly

We will continue to send the nylon screw repair kit out in the interim for users who need or prefer that option.

This initial batch won’t be enough to replace all the PCIe riser Gen 3 cable assemblies in existing H1s but we will get more in the coming weeks. It is going to take some time to get enough supply, but we will ship it out to everyone as soon as we can and are aiming to get these out to everyone within the next 3 months.

Thank you again for your support and understanding through all of this. We have an incredible community and we’re staying focused on maintaining the high standard of quality they’ve come to expect.

Thank you,
Team NZXT
