Fire or No Fire: New NZXT H1 Riser X-Ray & Testing (NZXT H1 PCIe Riser Fix)

The new NZXT H1 PCIe Riser is now ready for market, and this is what NZXT will be shipping out to customer to replace the fire hazard previously used. We'll test it and X-Ray it to see if it's fixed.

This test is following up the US CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission), Health Canada, and other global recalls (e.g. SA) of the NZXT H1. People can currently either apply for a refund or a repair for their NZXT H1 case, and the new PCIe riser is what we're testing today. The goal is to determine whether the fire starter has been replaced with a safer riser, and to make extra sure that everything has been fixed, we sent it out for x-ray in addition to usual continuity and short circuit testing.
