im looking for some sort of pci-e power connector that's low profile, small enough to fit in my case. my current case was just barely big enough to fit my card just fine, but obviously since I have to plug in the pci-e connectors, then the lid wouldn't close properly. So eventually I cut down the black plastic on the connectors themselves to make it fit. now the case closes but Its so snug that I basically have to screw the lid lock to keep it down, which im sure cant be good on the power connector or card. I have googled and checked ebay, but found nothing. the closest I found were numerous ebay auctions advertising a "right angled" pci-e adapter, but I contacted the seller as the pics looked suspicious. seller even confirmed it himself when he said the cord was just bent over at an angle, so its not a real right angle connector, lol.
any help for this would be much appreciated as I worry im straining the cord and the card. I already cut off the black piece of the cables so much that the metal contacts of the wires are pretty much level with the plastic. :-\
