PCI-Express Power Cable

thealmightyone · 06-28-2006, 08:56 PM

Where would I be able to buy a new power cable for my 7900gt? I ask because the one I have is too short (roughly 55cm) to go up the back of the case, rather than over the motherboard.

Well I am not sure if you can buy such a long cable but perhaps you could get the wires used for the cables and extend it yourself. It should not be that hard at all.

can't you cable tie it to another cable to keep it from touching the motherboard?

It's more a 'how nice wouldn't it be if the whole cable ran up the backside and popped out at the top' thing.

Case I have

I kinda exaggerated, at the mo it runs between the mobo tray and the drives column (I kinda weave the various cables with each other to stay together). I'm just seeing what I can do make it look as tidy as I can get it without actually attacking the case.
