Question Extending PCIe power cable ?

[Liborio]

Hi,

I need more length on my power cable from PSU to GPU. I want to know if i purchase a 8 Pin Female to Dual 8 Pin (6+2) Male PCI Express Power Cable 18AWG extender cable and plug it on the end of the PCIE cable coming out of the PSU, this will work and give me some extra length?

Something like this:

I have a Corsair 1000W RM1000x Gold Power Supply.

Thank you.

By how much are you short on the stock cables? You're advised to avoid any daisy chaining on the PCIe power connector/cables to avoid mishaps with the system.

So i have a PCIE cable from the PSU to a riser, then the OEM daisy chain off that cable to another riser but it is too short and close together so i want to extend one of the ends so the risers arent so close together.....
