[SOLVED] Corsair 500D

So I recently did I big upgrade on my pc and now my PCIe are not allowing me to close my case. Was wondering if there was something I could do to eliminate this besides getting a bigger case?

More flexible cables? What PSU you have?

Cables not long enough to carefully bend and cross over the barcode and down the other side of the card?

The pcie I have are fairly long , just not sure what you mean by crossing over the barcode. Like bring the pcie in from the right instead of frontal?

Over the barcode sticker on the back next to the fins. Yes if you're looking at card from side of case it'd be from its right side.

Card might even look better with the cable shower not in front of it the case having a glass side panel an all.

Well the problem is all PCIe cables in this model have 2 connectors at GPUs end (if I'm not mistaken). If you had cables with just one connector they would fit I guess.

There's one problem: the set has total 2 PCIe connectors, while his card needs 3 so need two sets which is pretty expensive option.

Message Corsair customer support. They've helped me in the past with a cable issue that was my fault.

took all 3 PCIe the PSU gave me and did singles with leading them from the right to left and draping the extra cord off the the right to release tension. Looks ugly but the door closes.
