Custom PCI-E 6x2 pin cable?

[naseem142]

Hello,

i want to know where can i get a custom sleeved PCI-E 6x2 pin cable because the one i got from my Seasonic 620W M12II Bronze is very stiff and getting in the way for me to easily close the case panel.

I don't need a whole set of custom cables just one for my gpu.

Thanks!

Cables need to be thick to safely carry the 150 watts that flows through that cable.

Yes , i meant more flexible and i already ordered a 6+2 pcie of modDIY.

More flexible to me sounds like thinner, which would not be a good thing.

There are standards about what gauge wires should be used for various amounts of power, and the good power supply companies know what those are and use the appropriate gauge wires. Its all done to prevent fires and shorts.

This is what i ordered , and i specified which PSU i have, It's not thinner it's just wrapped in some kind of fabric rather than plastic stock cables. Do you think it's a bad idea? I see a lot of modders use those kind of cables on high end PC's.

That looks fine. I know they need 18 gauge wiring, and those have it.
